It's true that I haven't attended many events. I was at DebConf0 (2 years ago) and at the french LinuxExpo in Paris in the same year. I participated in several `Journées du libre' (a big yearly event organized by my local LUG) in France and recently gave a talk about the `Logidée tools' during an event dedicated to free software in education. If I'm elected, I'll participate for sure in several of the biggest european events at least. For the other continents, it will depend on each case ... I'll also repeat what I've said in my platform : | However it's not always possible to go everywhere you're invited and | thus I'm thinking about the possibility to appoint local representatives | of the leader (volunteers of course). I hope that this will motivate some people to give Debian speeches at the major events. They'll have the required legitimacy because they are delegates of the leader and thus they'd probably have the same conditions than the leader with respect to hosting/transportation facilities. Of course, those representatives would be volunteers who have contacted the leader and who expressed their interests in doing so. If several people wish to be the representatives for the same "zone", either they agree together to share the work-load, or the leader will have to designate one according to the experience and so on. I hope this answers your question, if not feel free to ask me again on details that I have not adressed. Cheers, PS: BTW, that's one point of Branden's platform that I do like. -- Raphaël Hertzog -+- http://strasbourg.linuxfr.org/~raphael/ Formation Linux et logiciel libre : http://www.logidee.com
