Hi, a long time ago I said that I wanted to inform you about upcoming events that cover GNU/Linux and/or Free Software so you can participate in them and/or talk to the administration to find out whether they are supporting Free Software projects with proper booths or only collect money.
In order to help Debian spread the word, please find out if you would be willing to maintain a booth or hold a talk at one or another of the following events. More information that should help you with booth management are collected at the following URLs. http://www.debian.org/events/booth http://www.debian.org/events/checklist http://www.debian.org/events/requirements If you are interested in one event or another, please contact the administration on your own (cc to [EMAIL PROTECTED] appreciated but not required). For some events there is a link to their website which could help you find a contact.
