Re: Security/crime in Curitiba/Brazil
Hi, It will be very rare/difficult for you to do anything if you are walking during the day or as a group. In Brazil, most capitals or cities that present a level of risk, are always related to lack of lighting (nocturnal accidents on deserted streets) or to space fights/places that frequent (gangs, points of sale and drug use) . I quickly looked at 2 reports on Violence in my Country; I can tell you that Curitiba does not appear among the most dangerous cities; And from the capitals (27) it occupies position 17 of the 2016 ranking. But it is no alarming fact, the experience I have to travel outside Brazil is that in Brazil, as in other developing countries, it is good to walk with the bag closed, not to leave things on the floor or on the table.

Fight like Marielle Franco - Special T-shirt (GroupPhoto)
Hello everyone, A few weeks before the conference I decided to make a shirt[1] in honor of Marielle Franco and in support of human rights activists and the promotion of diversity. Who is Marielle Franco? "Woman, black, mother, lesbian, from the favelas, open about sexuality and Rio's problems, and on top of all this, a human rights activist." - That's how Marielle Franco once described herself in an event in Rio de Janeiro, the city where she was elected a councilwoman. And that's also why she was killed...[2] Thanks to everyone who bought the Marielle Franco's t-shirt. (is over now.) If you feel comfortable, bring your Marielle Franco T-shirt to wear during Debian GroupPhoto. Let's keep spreading this message! PS: Thanks to Daniel @Lenharo for helping with production and distribution.

Re: Call for logos for DebConf20 Online
Hi all, I wish everyone is well. I would like to state that Jeff's proposal[1] is very good, considering that Debian is made by network/online, but this moment says: #StayAtHome or #DebConfAtHome The element of a house and Debian inside is very significant for me. Guidance around the world to save as many lives as possible. If there is no rejection, all of my submitted proposals could be disregarded if they open for voting. (So sorry for this). [1] https://wiki.debian.org/DebConf/20/Artwork/LogoProposals?action=AttachFile=view=debconf20-jeff.svg PS: In the beginning, when I started collaborating with Art on Debian, we did it in the form of competitions. But it has been a long time since there is a lot of sense, there are many good designers helping the project and I have observed that competition is more a way to keep them away than to add. For this reason, I believe that we have evolved and I hope that the theme of the next Debian release and or even of the next DebConf, can be done following the principles of Collaboration and not more disputes with several proposals. That this discussion may be part of some other time or list, unfortunately I am not comfortable following it for now. The important thing is to recognize that there is no dispute for the best proposal, if not, an intention to collaborate with the project and everyone is able, those who do not master the graphic tools can collaborate with concepts, ideas; Those who master the handling of graphics software, collaborate in making the idea presentable / usable.
