Hi, I'm the lead developer of MirOS BSD, probably the only current operating = sy- stem still delivering XFree86=C2=AE by default =E2=98=BA (and this won't = change for at least another year or two), and at the same time, I am coordinating prese= nce of the BSDs at FrOSCon (www.froscon.org), a conference/exhibition about f= ree software and open source, August 25th and 26th, in St. Augustin near Bonn= , Germany. Note that I am not a FrOSCon official. I just now had the idea of inviting you guys to come over and have a boot= h; while I cannot assign booth space that easily (although, since knowing mo= st of the FrOSCon crew personally, this might be still possible), we can cro= wd you together with us BSD people if you want this. I also can't offer trav= el or accomodation (although there's free sleeping at the gym again and, may= be, subventioned hotel rooms). Exhibitors _do_ get free entrance and even qui= te some food though. You can also listen to some of the talks, there are a l= ot of them this time, even my co-developer is holding one (yes, MirOS is dow= n to 2 developers again, but we're still continuing). Sorry for doing this on short notice, but I just now wondered why these x= .org people show up at, say, LinuxTag, but you don't. I hope this is reassurin= g; I quite enjoy your high-quality (i.e. stability, not so much performance - = that said, XF4.5 runs faster on my savage than any x.org) releases. If at least one of you wants to come, contact me ASAP, so I can get your = logo and a link to the websites into the exhibitors list and try to reserve so= me more space (one is enough, but then one will have to come). Even if not, you might want to answer me. Please mail privately or put me= in Cc: as I'm not subscribed to this mailing list. Thanks! bye, //mirabile --=20 I believe no one can invent an algorithm. One just happens to hit upon it when God enlightens him. Or only God invents algorithms, we merely copy t= hem. If you don't believe in God, just consider God as Nature if you won't den= y existence. -- Coywolf Qi Hunt
