It sounds reasonable-ish, but rather than just Debian and Ubuntu I'd rather see a devroom specifically for Debian and *all* Debian-derived distros. If Ubuntu happen to be the only other group who turn up, then fine. But at least up-front let's make it more inclusive if we can. How does that sound? -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK.
