[Lbw2007] Large event in Crete, Greece this summer in need of Assurers (fwd)

[Spiros Bolis]

Hi Philipp,

sorry to contact you off-list but I haven't got a reply to the following
e-mail and I would like to know if my e-mails got through and if I sent
them to the right place. I took the liberty of mailing you directly
since you seem to have some authority in the cacert project from what I
could read in the support mailing list.

Since we'll be opening the registration process of the event in the next
few days, it would be nice to know if we could have a CAcert event (the
actual assurance plus a couple of relative presentations should the
assurer(s) be interested)

Thank you in advance for you understanding,

Regards,

Hi guys,

I've sent the following through the form on the website a couple of days
ago and immediately after that I got subscribed to this mailing list.

Since there's no answer guess that it didn't come through (or that I did
something very wrong! ;-) )

I think that due to the high concentration of geeks, it'll be a very
nice opportunity to broaden the WOT of CA-Cert (especially in Greece!)

P.S. Everyone is welcome to join of course

Hi guys,

This year we, the Hellenic Linux Users Group, are organizing the Linux
Beer Wanderung (Linux Beer Hike), "a week-long event which takes place
in a different European country each summer, drawing together Open
Source software enthusiasts from more than a dozen different countries,
for a combination of talks, presentations, hands-on mini-projects,
outdoor exercise, and good food and drink". The event is self-funded and
you can find more at lbw2007.hellug.gr


Since Greece is very low on the CA-Cert horizon, we would really like to
start having things rolling at the LBW. A short survey I made suggests
that there is only one person on the LBW mailing list (from London) that
can give only 35 points but unfortunately will not be joining the event
in Crete this year. Even if 3-4 people that will be coming to the event
get assured by him or someone else, I doubt that we can achieve the
critical mass to get things rolling on their own in Greece.

The reason I'm writing this e-mail is to ask you about the possibility
of you sending a Super Assurer
(or a couple of Assurers for that matter) to Crete on 2 - 9 September
2007

I'm at your disposal should you need any further information
