Re: [Debconf-team] [Debconf11-localteam] Inviting certain people, Mitnick



+1 for Mitnick in BL. That will be an interesting invite and first visit in this area. His visit will for sure attract media.

Hey,

As we discussed on our last meeting, I mentioned inviting certain
people to participate on DebConf11, have a lecture or whatever. All of
this is to "exploit" whole event so we could get more interest and
basically introduce ~60million users to this Debian. Also we discussed
that this would be more of a mention/notification rather then
invitation. My initial idea was to invite Stallman, after discussed
this it turned out he's really not a person to invite. Mostly because
it could stray attention from original idea, and would more harm whole
event rather then help it.

But another person I was thinking we could notify/invite/whatever
would be Kevin Mitnick. Only thing we could debate over is would be
probably "what does he have to do with Debian, or DebConf"? Right now
I don't have a lot of clue, except the fact that government would
probably like if we're bringing someone like him, regarding security
of course. And because then this whole event could be exposed through
media even more of course.

Let me know what you think.


Adnan
