[Chicken-users] address@hidden: [FOSDEM] Chicken Scheme stand declined]

[Christian Kellermann]

Dear Chicken Fans,

this is the first 'bad news' since a while. Our request for a stand
at FOSDEM 2011 has been declined. Nonetheless there might be a
chance to get some space in a devroom or we can do something else.
As you can see from the mail below I don't know why our application
didn't get approval but I guess the increasing popularity of FOSDEM
doesn't make life easier for the organizers...

So, which way to go?

Kind regards,

Christian

P.S.:
If you are reading this and are organising an interesting Open
Source event CHICKENISTAS are more than happy to drop by and or
have a booth at your thing if someone is physically able to get
there :)

Hi,

We're sorry, but your stand request for Chicken Scheme for FOSDEM 2010 has not 
been accepted.

We realize that this must be disappointing news, but unfortunately we don't 
have a sufficient number of stands at our disposal to cover all requests.
Just to clarify: your request is perfectly valid, but we had to pick.

Although your project will not have a stand, there are other possibilities to 
talk about it at FOSDEM:
 - On http://fosdem.org/2010/list-devrooms-their-call-talks we host a list of 
the accepted devrooms, with (soon) a link to their call for talks. Perhaps one 
of the devrooms shares your interests ?
 - Projects that do not fit in a devroom can apply for a lightning talk at 
FOSDEM, see http://fosdem.org/2010/call_for_lightningtalks.

Kind Regards,
The FOSDEM stand organizers.
