Umh, for some reason I ignored this mail, pity me.

It only needs a speaker...

Change its content to describe the use of these tools with their
influence on Debian, such as:
. Using CVS for package maintenance (cvs-buildpackage and others)
. What to do if a program to package uses autoconf? How to fiddle
with ./configure, how does it work, how to modify if it bombs out?
. What are Makefiles and how do they work? debian/rules normally is
a makefile after all

I'd rather have two talks/workshops due to the amount of potential
content.

Hmm, not really, simply because Debian GNU is already used in business
and this could give us some rationale why it was choosen, why it was
preferred over other systems, and what kind of requirements business
environments have, do we meet all of them? If not where and how could
Debian be improved?

It could be held outside of the Debian Day as well, since it doesn't
seem to be debian-specific.

Yes, I agree, you don't deserve to be listed twice. :)

LinuxTag opens at 9.00 and ends at 18.00 on non-sundays, so it could
be extended if required. Though, I've started the workshops at 10
o'clock.
I've marked all talks where a speaker has acknowledged it, with a
asterisk on the web page.
