That makes a lot of sense, yes. It's similar to what we did with DebConf 7 Ltd in the UK for DC7. It was a simple legal tool to help with financial and liability cover, nothing else. All the organising and decision making happened within the team as normal. Phil, Neil and I (as the directors of DC7 Ltd) had no more say than anybody else. -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK. st...@einval.com Getting a SCSI chain working is perfectly simple if you remember that there must be exactly three terminations: one on one end of the cable, one on the far end, and the goat, terminated over the SCSI chain with a silver-handled knife whilst burning *black* candles. --- Anthony DeBoer _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list Debconf-team@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
