I think (personal opinion) that both would deserve sponsoring to attend Debconf even if there wasn't this "Google lecture" event. Both of them are sufficiently active in Debian to deserve sponsoring. Of course, this opinion is purely mine and the real stance on it should be taken by the sponsoring team. Did Guido and/or Jesus register to attend? I personnally understand the "political" interest in having such talk during Debian Day. However, as Tiago said, I think it would be reaaly much more relevant if given by someone who attends Debconf anyway (just think about BDales' 'HP and Debian' talks). _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list Debconf-team@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
