If it is an official mail for the press, then I agree, but for any other meaning not, i.e. I think every event should have its own message on the debian-events-* mailing list (and unfortunately it is a pity that there is not a worldwide debian-events mailing list). > Nevertheless all events should be listed on the events page, and should > be mentioned in an "upcoming events" section of the DPN (which I grant I > nearly always forget). Fully ACK, the major problem I see ATM is that sometime I read about events on Planet or other sources instead of "proper" mailing lists (i.e. the debian-events-* ones). Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca
