Well, regarding the date I am not sure what is your suggestion. Even if it is arrival day, we don't need so much resources in term of man power at Debian Day mainly speakers and I will be there to coordinate. The rest of the team would stay working at Le Camp in my views. This event is not targeted toward Debian Developers or volunteers but for sponsors, users or people that haven't heard of Debian before. > > OPEN QUESTION 2: the location. > > > > Actually, the open question is not about the city where to have the > > Debian Day (Neuchâtel is the closest to the venue and also the capital > > of the canton where Vaumarcus is), but more about the venue.

We have a first OK from a reponsible at HES-Arc but it needs to go through a administrative process. I have been told it could be quite long. About the location the building is new and there are computers labs we could use. Marc told me we could change the hard disks and use Debian. This could be interesting to show people how it works.

They want to talk to the attendees at the main conference. I have also invited them to Debian Day. Cheers, Raphaël
