Hi, I'll be very likely at CLT again, too. If I don't have another booth to handle, I'll join in with the Debian booth.

IMHO that's _exactly_ what these lists should be and are. Events are local stuff and they should be handled mostly locally, not globally. I think it's a good idea to have central place to contact in case local event teams need physical resources or resources outside the wiki and the mailing lists, but nevertheless the organization and announcements should primarily be local. > >> <http://lists.debian.org/[email protected]> Gives a 404 for me.

And I'm still wondering if a German-speaking [email protected] list (like the Dutch speaking [email protected]) wouldn't be a good idea either.
