Who's invited? Just about anybody related to or interested in Debian. See [1] for more details; if you'd like to come along then please fill in your own details on that page so we can get an idea of numbers. There is still some crash space available at my place, but I'm expecting it to go quickly... :-) I hope to see a lot of you then!

We have some Ts, but I've no idea if anybody will be able to go.

Message-ID: <20110830224656.GG3795@einval.com> Hey folks, We've just about recovered from the weekend of fun at my place. It was awesome to catch up again with the folks that came, and as far as I can tell everybody enjoyed themselves. :-) Please express your thanks to our sponsors: * Collabora for two of the kegs of Milton beer * Mythic Beasts for another keg of the beer * antibodyMX for loads of food Their continuing support is awesome! Thanks, folks, and see you again next year if not before. Boring financial stuff: I spent GBP 304.68 total on food, charcoal, coffee and misc other stuff. People paid in GBP 398.83 this year. As promised, the surplus (GBP 94.15) will go into Debian UK funds. Cheers, -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK. steve at einval.com Who needs computer imagery when you've got Brian Blessed?
