Should we apply or at least ventilate the hypothesis to hold it in Switzerland? Some reasons why I think we should at least announce it to the world: 1) according to Chistian [1] we are the second largest Debian Developer community... relative, I know, but still! Actually, I am quite sure that if some few members will become DDs we will beat .fi ;-) [1] <http://www.perrier.eu.org/weblog/2011/06/12#devel-countries-201106-3> 2) people during various conferences and or gatherings (being Debian- or Free Software-related or even private) have discussed about that quite a lot, it is time we do something. 3) the debian.ch community is quite visible, despite actually not being so in Switzerland, it is worlwide, mostly because of the merchandise stuff and the presence at conferences. Gerold (cc:ed) privately offered to help organizing a Debian-related events in the French part of Switzerland: we should for sure start setting something like the Mini DebConf Paris 2010 [2], but both events are not mutually exclusive.
