Not that I know. Patrik, Sascha and I did discuss the idea with one of
the Linux-Kongress organizers. We promised to email a couple of ideas
for this around (for example, put all the ideas from the abstracts that
we rejected for Linux-Kongress proper together) but we did not really
follow up on that. Sorry.

The page itself says that it is for 27-10-2003 so I don't know if that
is current.

last week I did email address@hidden as the contact page says, to see
if we could get a developer room, but I didn't hear back from them yet.
But if Chris knows one of the organizers that might be a better way to
contact them.

How many people want to attend (Brussels, Belgium, the weekend of 21-22
February 2004)? If I followed the messages and irc discussions correctly
then Arnaud, Chris, Tom, Dalibor, Stephane, Michael and myself will be
there at least.

Cheers,

Mark
