Thanks Falky!
a) Some of you may have noticed that I got rather pissed after I found
out that registrating for DebConf requiers the use of some non-free,
proprietary software running on some lindows.com hosts under some
non-free operating system and stuff.
b) You may have also noticed that we (mostly Erik Tews) managed to get
a private frontend for LTP up and running which helps us organizing
LinuxTag.
In order to prevent further instances of a) I'll plan to set up a
public registration suite which will reuse some of the code we
developed for b). The code is publically available, and now that I
write these lines, I recall that it lacks a copyright file, but it's
GPL, of course.
Anyway, I plan to work on it after LinuxTag so it'll be ready for the
Release Party and probably for the next DebConf as well. If somebody
would like to help implementing and planning, please drop me a line at
the end of July.
I also need to discuss things with HoserHead and Falky to find out
what kind of information they need to gather from such a frontend.

I hope, you're going to announce it properly in the Minden area, so
that several people will actually lurk around and see what Free
Software, Debian and GNU/Linux can provide for them. I guess that
several people will take their laptop with them anyway, it could
actually be of some use. :-)

I plan to organize a poster for LinuxTag covering this party. That
poster should be placed on the wall of the booth somewhere (Thimo,
please note this). I don't know what it will look like, but I'm sure
it'll be nice. The artist provided some amazing graphics before.
He'll be in touch with Falky and me, probably.

I'm happy, we're finally up for such a party. Oh, and I wonder if
Woody will be released at that time. :-)
Gruesse,
Joey
