Uhm..just so I get this right: The 6 are: i386, m68k, alpha, powerpc, sparc,
(which one is missing?), and the 2 in progress are hurd-i386 and arm?
(I don't count binary-all as architecture ;-)

I'll leave a space in there for a stamp, but I believe we won't be using
it right now for the congress.

Yes, I know that - but yesterday I checked out two copyshops near the
university, and one of them can only copy, not fold, while the other one COULD
fold if their folding machine were not defunct. So, at least for me, I'm
so far stuck with the city library's printing services. Or does anyone else
who comes to Augsburg have good connections and is willing to care for the
printing/z-folding?

PS: Good news: I have another nice toy we can demo at the congress: A pretty
fine digital camera from Nikon (Coolpix 950) which I borrowed from a friend
from my company. I just checked it out with gphoto, and it works nicely,
though a bit slow over the serial port (and as for USB support, looks like
that's not here right now). But the current Debian package of gphoto is
very unstable (0.3.5-3); I compiled my own binary from the most current
0.3.6-pre sources, which is much more stable.
