Hi For what it's worth, bearing in mind that I am new to DebConf, I think this is a good idea, and I would like to know more about how the first workshop went, and if it happens again in August, how that one went. (I have not replied privately before)
My thoughts: Stating explicitly that this is independent is needed, just to cover bases. On the other hand I see no problem with it being associated with DebConf. It's Debian associated, and a conference-related activity. Why is the fee required? Obviously to cover costs, but seen from the outside - how does it justify it in terms of DebConf? I would imagine that businesses would want a different setup, perhaps confidential and this would imply a cost?? Otherwise just to select against people 'just showing up'? This would have been better received if it was communicated in detail to the wider team earlier - which we should address for future cases. best regards Bernelle On Thu, Jul 16, 2015 at 3:12 PM, Martín Ferrari <tin...@tincho.org> wrote: > On 16/07/15 14:57, martin f krafft wrote: >> Oh?
