[CeBIT] HOWTO find our booth
As some people had problems finding our booth, here's a small explanation. We are guest at the booth of Univention in Hall 2, stand B36. It's quite near to the north entry, where you arrive by the tram lines 8 and 18.
Look for the univention booth:
If you are direct in front of the Univention booth, we are on the right
hand side of the booth:
If you come from the other side, from the rest of the Open Source Area, it
looks like this:
PS: And now, dear zobel, you have three guesses, what Pia is going to get for her birthday...

[CeBIT] Something I like to share with the Debian community
I'm really delighted, thet you are here! You know, I started quite late
with that whole IT business, and Debian was my first distribution. It all
worked perfectly and took all my fears of it away!

[CeBIT] Yes, we still have free tickets.
But speaking of that I must confess, that by mistake I deleted one of the mails asking for a such a free ticket, instead of replying. I'm very sorry. So if you come from the Netherlands, asked me for a ticket, and haven't got an answer, yet, please use one of the following links:
I hope, one of the links will work long enough, till the intended recipient reads this ;)

[CeBIT] Link to my Debian GNU/kFreeBSD talk
Sorry; I didn't made it in the promised 15 minutes (as someone turned the internet off), but here is finally the link to my (German) slides of my Debian GNU/kFreeBSD talk. (Sorry, no fancy website arround that, yet.)
I would also like to make clear, that Debian does not plan to drop its support for the Linux kernel. Debian will continue to release a linux based distribution. You may install the very same distribution based upon a FreeBSD kernel. It's your choice.
A several people asked that at our booth, I guess there is somewhere a misunderstanding, but I don't know the root if that missunderstanding. If someone could tell me, why he thought so (maybe I missed a unclear formulation somewhere?) I would be very glad and try to improve it.
So, thanks again for the kbsd people, who helped alot and really tried to answer every stupid question I came up with during preparing my talk :)
