it is a 'side proposal' - we can offer a venue and logistics but cannot guarantee any funding. the proposal is only on the table to recognise that there is both an oil crisis and an economic crisis which might prevent people from traveling far. hence those in the the EU that may not wish to travel, or cant afford it, can meet in Amsterdam but it would be at their own cost. we will provide the venue for free and help organise hotels, try and get discounted meals, organise break-out rooms, provide wireless, assist with the schedule, and hook the event up to the main event via video conferencing, irc etc we don't wish to detract from the two main pitches and we would only be interested in doing this type of event if a significant number of people can't travel to north america or asia from the EU, otherwise its not needed. adam > cya > Craig > > > _______________________________________________ > CREATE mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/create -- Adam Hyde Founder FLOSS Manuals http://www.flossmanuals.net _______________________________________________ CREATE mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/create
