Hi, This will be the schedule for the FOSDEM Debian developers' room:

Having said that, I'd like to ask for a volunteer to "man" the developers' room. We did this last year, in that besides myself, Steve McIntyre and Thijs Kinkhorst both had a half-day shift in the developers' room where they'd introduce speakers and keep an eye on the clock. I think this worked well, and I'd like to repeat it. Steve has already volunteered to do the same work this year, so that leaves me asking for one other volunteer. Additionally, we still need to organize something for the booth. I'd said previously that I'd prefer not to do a babelbox this year, because I thought we'd already done that twice[1]; but so far I've not heard any better suggestions (or any suggestions at all, really). If people have ideas of something we could show off this year, please speak up now; otherwise, Frans, could you find the time to do a babelbox setup anyway (in Cc, since I'm not sure whether you read -events-eu)? Finally, I also need to figure out what to do with manning the booth. In previous years, I'd asked for volunteers who would all have to stay at the booth for a one-hour shift, in the expectance that they wouldn't be alone (but they would be responsible for the property during their assigned slot, and be required to be at the booth during that time). I found last year that this doesn't work so well; so a change is in order there. At this point I'm considering to increase the time slot to two hours, but I'm not sure whether that will really solve the issue. At any rate, volunteers for the booth would be needed, and perhaps we can then work out something among those who volunteer to work at the booth. Interested parties are urged to mail me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks, [1] Frans told me I was mistaken, and that we've done this only once at FOSDEM. I'm not sure myself; but in any case it doesn't really matter all that much. -- <Lo-lan-do> Home is where you have to wash the dishes. -- #debian-devel, Freenode, 2004-09-22 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
