as promised Mechtilde and I will join the Apache booth (stand) team at FOSDEM 2016.
So you think it's better not to apply (additionally) as OpenOffice? We don't have any assurance that the ASF will be granted a stand, and OpenOffice has always been granted one for years.
It's a great pleasure for us, that the greater Apache Community joins FOSDEM with a booth.
I was assuming/understanding that we would have sent both the OpenOffice request (highly likely to be approved; but less important) and the ASF request (new, so less likely; but more important). And that, if both were approved, we would merge the tables, or if one was approved we would share the table.
So no doubt we would all be together, in any case; I thought we would try and maximize the chance of getting a presence.
It appears Daniel has already sent a request on behalf on the ASF (deadline is in November) but I haven't seen it at https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/COMDEV/FOSDEM+2016 or on the lists, so I have no idea about the contents. I just want to be sure that the ASF at large, and OpenOffice as part of it, get a presence under whatever name; and that we maximize our chances to be at FOSDEM.
