Hi,
Of course we're aware of NUI (the Reverend is well read around here),
but it is the tenuousness of the link with GNOME which bothers me. I am
sue that this will bother me less over time, and certainly if there are
gnome-fr members coming to the meetings to give presentations, we'll be
happy to reconsider (have you considered joining gnome-fr?).
But for the moment, I'm not sure what you will do with the computers if
we send them, and this doesn't seem in line with the mission we
envisaged when creating the box, so I prefer wait and see.
Cheers,
Dave.

Hi Dave,
I understand your philosophy behind the box, but do try this for being famous
or not :

Did you want Novell to take responsibility for the box? I could have arranged
that.
FYI, we are going to have a venue every two months...
Anyway, thanks for your reply.
Cheers,
Jimmy

Hi Jimmy Pierre,
I think the link between organising a GNOME stand at a conference (the
goal of the box) and having equipment for an NUI meeting is tenuous. But
it would be possible if:
1. Someone well known in GNOME takes responsibility for the box
2. You pay the transport costs to from the conference (approx. €150)
3. You've reserved the box via the wiki
Unfortunately, I don't think that you're well enough known, and the
purpose of the meeting doesn't seem in line with the idea we had in mind
when creating the event box, so it seems to me like we won't be able to
send you the event box (at least for this meeting).
Cheers,
Dave.

Hi Murray,
We are having a Software Freedom Day on the 18th November, 2006.
I was just wondering if the Events Box could be lent to us.
Here is our site : www.nui.fr http://www.nui.fr
It's in French, but you will get the zist :-) The event page :
http://www.nui.fr/jmll_18novembre2006.html
I look forward to reading you on this.
The GNOME Events Box is really for GNOME events. You might ask on
foundation-list@gnome.org mailto:foundation-list@gnome.org, if you
really want it for a non-GNOME event,
and/or would like the GNOME Foundation to fund delivery of the box to
and from your event.
