The conference takes place in Athens and also in three/four other cities in Greece. Therefore, the audience for this initial call is for people in Greece. The conference organisers invite several speakers from outside Greece to give a talk in English. I suppose it's up to us (Greek team) to suggest an invited speaker from GNOME. Stathis, can you contact ellak.gr in case they are still looking for speakers? There are opportunities for GNOME Booths, as we had last year (Salonica and Larisa, both organised by Stathis). It's quite easy to get a booth, as long as we have the volunteers to man them. Simos -- marketing-list mailing list marketing-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/marketing-list
