My one concern from the perspective of a host/organizer is that by picking a firm date based on the timing of another event, it may really limit the ability of a place like BU to be able to continue hosting FUDCon. If there is no flexibility in the dates, there will be a possibility that we might not be able to host it at all if there happens to be some scheduling conflict on our end. A bit of flexibility always helps with that. That said, we managed to do it in conjunction with LinuxWorld for two years, though the 2005 FUDCon suffered a bit as a result of that constraint. Regarding the comment about Brazil and the rest of the world, I assume that this proposal does not exclude the possibility of other FUDCon events. It's just an attempt to formally plan for a couple big ones each year. - Paul -- Paul Stauffer <paulds@xxxxxx> Manager of Research Computing Computer Science Department Boston University -- Fedora-marketing-list mailing list Fedora-marketing-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-marketing-list
