Here is an update!
Sankar will send 300 OpenSUSE GNOME 3 DVDs to support
MOSC2011. If anybody else have other GNOME goodies to give
away to MOSC2011 (Malaysia), please let us know!
Regarding speakers, we will most likely send a speaker from
either India or China to save travel cost. Bharath / Akhil
(and Emily) are following up with that now. Thanks!

Hi Vincent, hi all,
We are informed that there will be a conference in
Malaysia named
MOSC2011 (3-5 July, 2011), the organizer is asking
us if we can send
them some GNOME related goodies e.g. dvds,
stickers, tshirts to
distribute in their conference bags.They target to
have 300
participants. So the quantity will be 300 pcs
each. For less and
more value goodies, they will distribute them
through questionnaires
or lucky draw. Please let me know if you have any
to give away.
Would it make sense to send GNOME 3 DVDs? I can see
if Sankar can do
that from India, else we can try to send boxes from
Europe.
yeah! I asked them if they are interested in GNOME 3
DVDs, they do!
Please, if Sankar has 300 DVDs, Mohd can give an
address in a separate email.
Besides, they want us to provide speakers to talk
about how to
develop GNOME (app) for newbies (beginners) and a
brief introduction
of the GNOME community. Other topics can be
proposed by the
community as well. I am asking Bharath (based in
Bangalore, India)
to see if he has time to go, otherwise, if you are
interested or you
have anybody in mind to recommend, please let us
know. The organizer
can provide 2 - 3 nights of hotel for
accommodation. Thanks!
So we used to maintain a wiki page with potential
speakers for events:
https://live.gnome.org/GnomeEvents/Speakers.
It's outdated, though.
Hopefully Bharath can go. Else, we might want to
encourage other people
to speak at events -- I can think of Allan, Frédéric
(although he can't
for this one), Fernando, etc.
I can check if I could go, but I'm going to another
event the week
after, so I'd prefer to do that only if nobody else
can and if it's
really an important event for us. That's something
up to the marketing
team and to the board, I guess (as it involved
sponsoring travel).
FWIW, I just looked and sending someone from Europe
would cost
€1300-€1400, with a full-day trip (ie, 24 hours);
which is quite some
money and time to invest. So I guess any final
decision depends how
important our presence to this event is :-)
I totally agreed! It makes more sense to have someone
nearby to join! I will have a irc meeting and Bharath
should join, I will ask him later!
