Re: Debian money
Hi,
We have a significant amount of money, but I would not define it as a
"huge amount".

My full support to spend money on this. In both cases, you can show where
the money was spend and the benefits Debian got from it.
I am less enthusiastic about:

However, I think we should try and see if it is worth it. Maybe we could spend
some money in next's year FOSDEM booth? I am told Debian had a booth in
FOSDEM'2009 but I was unable to find it...
(I do not think this trying should be limited to Europe, but I do not know of
conferences like FOSDEM in other parts of the world. )
A big "please don't" to:
