First, here's a preview of some web pages I put together for WineConf 2005: - http://www.theshell.com/~vinn/wineconf05.html - http://www.theshell.com/~vinn/wineconf05-travel.html
Below is a preview of an announcement to be sent to wine-devel and samba-technical. Anyone have any changes I should to either the announcement or the web pages?
----------------------
WHAT: WineConf 2005 WHEN: April 30 - May 1, 2005 WHERE: Institute of Communication Networks and Computer Engineering Stuttgart-Vaihingen Campus University of Stuttgart WHO: Anyone interested in Wine development. This is a developers-only conference. HOW: Check out WineHQ for travel details. We still have quite a lot to work out, including the actual agenda, but we'll update these web pages as more info becomes available:
http://www.winehq.org/site/wineconf05
The website has details on joining the wineconf mailing list. At this point there's a lot of planning that remains, so you'll have to bear with us as that discussion occurs. For those of you interested in Samba development, you might want to check out the SambaXP conference (http://www.sambaxp.org) since it's going to occur the two days following WineConf.
WineConf 2004 was a lot of fun and I hope everyone can make it again. With a little luck we'll be able to attract everyone who couldn't make it to balmy, breezy Minneapolis last year.

Hello Brian,
thanks, these web pages are great in my opinion.
Only a few comments:
- From my point of view, it is not required to put my name on the page; if you really want to do so please remove the "Prof.". The instituts name is enough...
- We probably should add some info on the campus and how to find the location on the campus. The campus is really big (about 4000 people are working here together with about 10000 students), so visitors will have some trouble even with the best markers because of the many possibilities to come here.
- Do you want to add some kind of feedback so that we get a feeling how many guests will come? This will allow for a better planning. Or do you think that counting the number of subscribers of the maillist is enough?
Hope this helps,
Greetings
Ulrich

We did this last year with a simple RSVP form and I think it was invaluable.
It also allowed people to make personal comments and try to work out things like travel funding.
Brian, do you want me to have Jer whip something simple up?
Also, what we did last year was to say something vague about travel sponsorships and allow people to write in the comments if they were looking for it.
Cheers,
Jeremy

That'd be great. Something just like last year. I think that would be a great place to make a comment about travel funding too - we can just add a line at the top of the form that says something like, "Limited funds are available for travel assistance. If you are in need of funding, please make a comment in the comment field below."
What does everyone think? Should I send that announcement out?

Why don't you wait until we give Jer a chance to amend the form.
If you can send the stuff to Jer and just put a 'insert form here', he can get it set up live quickly. These are famous last words, but I may even persuade him to let you have access to maintain the page directly too.

I already have access. In fact, he said I could just put it up on WineHQ. Should I mail it to him? Or should I just throw it up on WineHQ? I'd actually prefer not putting it on WineHQ right now because everyone will see the CVS commit.
