Fwd: Proposal for a Debian-NP-Organized Miniconf at Debconf/FISL

Greetings!

This is a proposal I've just sent to the coordination and organization
lists for Debconf4 and International Free Software Forum (FISL). Both
events will be happening during last week of May, first week of June
(Debconf first, then FISL) in Porto Alegre, Brazil.

The basic idea is that we would create a Debconf-NP miniconf at
Debconf4/FISL and that it would brings in people from both the
non-profit and "civil society" communitues and the free software
development community for some cool dialog, discussion, networking and
HACKING. :)

I also like the idea that we'd also be able to use this as a way to
use money to fund Debian-NP development by flying developers to Brazil
and such without having to the step of paying developers directly. :)

I'd love to hear any feedback anyone has.

Regards,
Mako
