Re: Upcoming events announcement: please review and translate



[tl;dr @press people: the announcement at
svn.debian.org/svn/publicity/announcements/en/2011/2011-07-02-upcoming-events.wml
needs to be released as soon as possible, because one of the events cited
in it ends tomorrow. I can easily publish on the website: could someone
please send it to debian-news?]

Thank you both for your quick reply (and for the review, obviously).
I've changed the capitalisation - downcasing all the Spanish and French
titles - and capitalizing the title of the tutorial (I hope in the right
way: if I remember correctly all words, except prepositions and articles,
need to be capitalized in English titles). 

I'll publish it on the site now, and wait for someone from press@d.o for
the mail. 

Thank you again for your work (and with so short notice!),

Francesca
