Hi Philip and all other Debianeros coming to HAR2009, On Wed, Aug 05, 2009 at 03:17:16PM +0200, Philip Paeps wrote: > A while back, I signed up on the wiki as a "refugee" in the Debian > Village.
Yeah, and I'm glad you wrote me an e-mail, because you were the only one on https://wiki.har2009.org/page/Village:Debian#Who_will_come.3F I had difficulties finding the appropriate e-mail address. I was already planning to write this mail which now became a reply on your's since you asked exactly the questions I planned to answer anyway. (Hope you don't mind citing parts of it on d-...@l.d.o.) > Going through the list of things I need to do before HAR, I realized > I have no idea where the village is going to be, Same to me. Although I saw some villages having there place already set, I found no indication in the wiki how to claim space for a Village. So I do this now by announcing it here (see below) and on https://wiki.har2009.org/page/Village:Debian > and more importantly, that I haven't contributed anything to the > founding of the village. Since I just was at DebConf9 and I'm on holidays now, I would like to see the (small) village as place to hang out, recover from DebConf9 (/me waves to h01ger ;-) and enjoy the time with like-minded people -- nothing overorganised. :-) > Do you have any idea where the Debian village is going to be on the > HAR site? I herewith announce that the village shall be at the border between the camping areas D and W close to the campervan area where I will probably reside since they want all campervan and caravan users to live in one place. (The word "ghetto" comes to my mind. *grmpf*) > Would you like any contributions towards use of village tents or > such things? One village/party tent wouldn't be bad. I'm living in my 2CV for about 4 weeks and have no space to carry around any bigger things. (Besides of not owning a party tent yet.) Even left my camping table at home... I do though have an igloo tent with me, but I'm not yet sure if I will sleep in the car or tent. So if we need some storage space, that tent would be an option and I would sleep in the car (which should be seen as one-man-campervan ;-). h0lger: Do you have that big Debian banner which was in the entrance hall at Muñoz Torrero? That would make a good feature of our small village. ;-) > Since I'm coming by train and bike, Hehe, cool. I have a folding bike with me, which should help about being not allowed to move your campervan during the event. :-/ > I'm a bit limited in "gear" I can bring along, but if there's > anything you need me to bring (power strips, cables, switches, > whatever), let me know and I'll try to drag them along. :-) I have only one big powerbar (ca. 8 sockets, several meters of cable) and two network cables plus connector, so maybe switches, and some more network cables and power bars wouldn't be a bad idea. > PS: If you can't match my face to name, I'm the FreeBSD refugee who hangs out > with the Debianists at Chaos Congress too. :-) Hrm, I never was and probably never will be at the CCCongress due its date and me being a member of that set of geeks who belong to a working family. ;-) BTW: Anyone coming earlier? I will be in the Netherlands from tomorrow on and I will probably be at HAR before 13th of August, but I'm not yet sure when I will arrive there since I don't want the car and me to be bound to one place for over one week. Give me a call (see below) if you arrive before 13th of August. Hope to see you soon at HAR! P.S.: I probably won't be reachable by e-mail, Jabber or IRC before arriving at HAR, but I should be quite easily reachable by phone (using a hands-free set running Linux ;-). My mobile phone number is +41 79 769 4554. At HAR (and FrOSCon :-) my DECT number will be 2106. P.P.S. to tokkee: A pity you can't come. See you at FrOSCon then at least.
