Some more data... Can someone please upload a web page in guadec.org with the collection of links provided here? There are many interesting but almost hidden pages...
> - Number of developers coming to Barcelona? 315 registered today, 500 expected (and no reason by now to change this expectation). More than 64 bungalows booked in the GNOME Village at Vilanova Park: you don't get so many free software developers sleeping "together" so easily. I bet many people (journalists included) would be interested in seeing http://live.gnome.org/GUADEC2006/GNOMEVillage > - Represented groups of gnome project (core, gtk, gpe etc.?)? We don't know, although the http://guadec.org/GUADEC2006/schedule and the http://guadec.org/GUADEC2006/tagcloud can give a hint. You can also browse the profiles of: People planning to stay the whole week: http://guadec.org/profile/participants/the%20whole%20week The 3 core days: http://guadec.org/profile/participants/the%203%20core%20days > - The countries who will be represented by developers (US etc.)? Although "represented" is too much (i.e. a Russian guy living in Finla nd and working for Nokia count as Russian representative?), this is something we should have asked since the beginning, yes. I guess all the EU countries, and as far as I remember Serbia, Check Republic, Hungary, Letonia, Norway, Turkey, Iran, India, China, Mongolia (to be confirmed, visa in progress), Nigeria (visa in progress), Dodji Seketeli is from Togo and living in France, I wonder if we have South Africans, Canada, USA, Mexico, Colombia, Brazil, Chile, Australia, New Zealand. Maybe there are more between the companies' employees... > - Biggest companies represented by developers (Novell, Sun, HP?)? http://live.gnome.org/GUADEC2006/PrintedContent/ProfList > - Most important slots at "GNOME Core"-Conference (3-5 examples)? http://guadec.org/GUADEC2006/schedule/Core Apart from the keynotes, see the "UPC Big" column and judge by yourself. > - The names, functions, companies and countries of our vips/keynote-speakers? http://live.gnome.org/GUADEC2006/PrintedContent/CoreKeynoter is what we have now > - Informations about main sponsors how should be named (Gold Sponsors/All?)? http://guadec.org/GUADEC2006/sponsors I think it's not bad to spend 2 lines enumerating the cool list of sponsors we have, adding te co-organizers (specially the Generalitat de Catalunya and Campus de la Mediterrània. Maybe changing a bit the sort making sure the worldwide known brands (Nokia, Google, Intel etc) are visible. Ypu could also provide some description about the not so know i.e. OSDL is "home to Linus Torvalds, the creator of Linux", Fluendo is a Barcelona based company with an international team... more in the descriptions sent by the own sponsors. > If i get all that informations i can write down the release in near time.

Great. I wish I'll have some time to invest also in PPRR with journalists since I'm not bad dealing with them, English is still a language barrier with the local press and a Catalan speaker inside an international event is part of the "exotism". -- Quim Gil /// http://gnome.org | http://guadec.org _______________________________________________ guadec-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/guadec-list
