[arch-events] Arch at Froscon
by Sven-Hendrik Haase 06 Jun '13

06 Jun '13

Hai everypony, I just registered an Arch booth for Froscon. I know it's way past the registration date but they assured me that there will still be room for us. A friend and me will sit the booth there but I'm curious who else is interested. Since there has been no traffic at all to the announcement on this list, I expect we'll be alone but since there still is time to register participants, I figured I might as well announce it. So then, who else wants to be official Arch Linux booth personal? Sven
