If you want to give a presentation, you can just go there and do it. But since this doesn't seem to be a "usual" conference to me, I wouldn't expect the organizers to honor just every presentation offer they get. Oh, and speaking of the organizers: it's organized by the Department of Economic Affairs (MinEZ), but I'd guess that the most useful first contact would be via the NLUUG or NLLGG. However, do make sure that you actually end up talking [yes, _talking_] to the exact ambtenaar that is responsible for the presentation schedule, otherwise your request may just vanish... Some more digging around the Department's website unearthed one document that may, or may not be relevant to the upcoming events: http://www.ez.nl/content.jsp?objectid=40274 > Alexander: any goodies available near NL that we could use? I have 10pcs Debian logo poster, A0 format (real eye-catcher), for loan or sale, to be collected in Papendrecht. Also 3 or 4 Debian logo mugs were left over from SANE2006, but I'm not sure if these would be useful for the Summer Camp(s). And of course I can burn quantities of any CD or DVD that you might like.
