Dear Yao Wei, I have two queries - a. How many local taiwanese companies are coming to Debconf (as sponsors) ? It would have been nice if you had shared that. From what I could find, there are only 3 or 4 if you count fsij as its from japan (asia). skymizer, slat , deepin, fsij b. What is the 'stamps' events that you were talking about ? Is it something to do with exchanging 'commemorative stamps' https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commemorative_stamp or something else altogether ? If it's the same thing, I don't think it would be a bad thing to do or have. There is another bit of info.or work that probably needs to be looked at - IF we are going to have the job fair for more than a day then they would need a place to put up their stuff. 14 companies stuff would take considerable room, perhaps a room for the sponsors to put their stuff, also they would need security and perhaps insurance, the last part they would need to work out themselves. Having security or having a locked room with a CCTV camera might be good. In any case, 3 days IMHO is a bit too long, 2 days should be sufficient though. Another thing to think about, it could set up a precedent which might be also something that we might want to avoid.
