I would estimate that by the end of next week (3rd of June) we will know for sure if they are coming or not.

If we have a lot, then it'll be a bit disappointing if only a tiny fraction can participate in Jaldhar's workshop. Is there any ideas on how we could be more flexible here? We should at least give preference to people who are not going to attend DebConf because those who do will have plenty of opportunities to get advice directly from the gurus :) > > Abstracts for Debian Day? > > I define abstracts as one or more small paragraphs, which tell the > audience a bit about the topic of the talk, to arouse their interest.
