We'll do our best in scheduling it, and please, include the event id number.

Re: [Debconf-discuss] [Debconf-announce] The now traditional Cheese and Wine party (formal announcement)
Quoting Enrico Zini (enr...@enricozini.org): > Do we actually have enough cheese to be able to actually replace dinner > for a large amount of people? At first glance, I'd say "probably not". I'm slightly worried about the amount of cheese we currently have. As the wiki page says, nothing in the event is very deeply prepared, so anything can happen...including not having that many cheese. So, I'd advise to be prepared for any kind of conditions, includinga certain lack of cheese! ___ Debconf-discuss mailing list Debconf-discuss@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-discuss

Please add > your name to: > http://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/DebConf9/CheeseWineBoF#Dinner_exclusion_list Do we actually have enough cheese to be able to actually replace dinner for a large amount of people? I personally don't see a reason to put my name on the list: I intend to have dinner, so that I turn up in the mood of sampling little bits, not of getting a meal. If we end up having some cheese left, surely we can put it the following day on the tables near the hacklabs.

[Debconf-discuss] Help wanted: SCM plugins for FusionForge
Hi all, Debcamp is almost over, and I'm pleased to say I'm almost done with the code refactoring in the CVS and Subversion plugins of FusionForge. That now opens the way for easy implementation of plugins for other SCM tools, since only the tool-specific part needs to be coded. Since I don't know all of these newfangled tools, I'd like to take the opportunity of using this new "real-life interaction" technology Holger mentioned. If you could spare some of your time to come and see me, explain how your tool of choice works and how best to integrate it into a forge. Not much: repository creation, gathering of basic commit stats on an existing repo, and configuring a repo browser. I usually hang aroud hacklab #1, but if I'm not on IRC feel free to come and rescue me from alcoholism in the park or from going mad at a Mao game.
