I am not upset at all. I was there anyway and enjoyed my time as you very
well know. I just made a small point on the fact that would be more
constructive to have a bit more "internationaled" talk. Or otherwise have
a more clear picture of what LinuxTag is. I personally decided to be there
because of the "Largest European..." that gave me the feeling of a more
international events (in terms of talks, i know that at the booths there
were several foreigners).
