Sounds a good idea to send something. > does anyone have relations to heise( publisher of these magazines)? One or more on the German speaking lists @de.freebsd.org have, but I don't remember who. Type Heise into the search box of http://www.freebsd.org & you end here http://www.freebsd.org/de/index.html & go to http://www.de.freebsd.org & search again & you find EG http://univ.dyndns.org/freebsd/search-de/index.cgi?query=heise&max=20&result=normal&sort=score&idxname=questions Best search or ask .de lists EG questions@de.freebsd.org has by far the heaviest traffic. Just becaus you'r not geographically in Germany doesn't mean you shouldn't use German language resources when needed ;-) (assuming you speak German). > another thing that i am wondering about is how do i get material for a freebs > d booth. there is an opensource event in every major city in austria between > mai and june called linuxweeks (www.linuxwochen.at) i had a talk with one of > the "managers" and they would also like to see a freebsd booth. i think it w > ould be nice to sell some of the freebsd 5.x isos, shirts and have some mater > ial/handouts for the visitors. There was a Linuxday down towards Swiss end of Austria a few months back, (Bodensee/Constance) Vorarlberg Linux Club or some such. One of the BSD speakers was recruited from the pool of people who are subscribed to lists on majordomo@de.freebsd.org. PS If you want to keep tabs on BSD people/events in South Germany/Bavaria, we have Berkeley In Munich at http://www.berklix.org/bim/ Good luck with the advocacy.
