Hello,
As you can see from the email below, we have been planning to hold a Bacula
Developer's conference the 27th and 28th of September. Despite some early
enthusiasm, there are currently not enough people signed up to hold the
conference.
However disappointing that is, I am hoping that there will be enough interest
manifested by the end of this week. Real interest can be shown by sending a
registration email to the address noted below.
Best regards,
Kern
