Just in case, I crafted something last couple of days (this is indeed
based on an invitation I received for the FOSS.in conference):
Dear <foo>,
Invitation to the annual Debian conference
We are pleased to invite you to attend the DebConf9 conference.
As a specialist in your field, you will be able to add a unique
perspective to the technical presentations and discussions at the
conference. We sincerely hope that you will be able to come to
Cáceres and present you work and your ideas.
At DebConf9, we expect about 50 national and international speakers
and an audience of 400 developers, academia, business, science and
public sector.
The conference dates are July NN-PP, 2009, including the Debian Days,
where developers and contributors work together in workshops and team
meetings.
For uptodate information please refer to the conference website, which
you may find at at http://www.debconf9.org.
