Hi, http://maemo.org/community/brainstor...outreach_team/ needs a split between the explanation of the problem and listed solutions.

Quite the opposite, I would say. We have an interest in increasing the presence and activity of the Maemo community in events. There is a growing interest and many organizers contact us directly to send people to give a talk, staff a stand... There is also a growing interest from Maemo contributors to jump out of the Internet to the physical World to spread the word and have fun, and again a problem is that we can't be everywhere.

Texrat asks about Texas, andrewfblack asks for other US events, mikhas asked yesterday about LinuxTag in Berlin and so on.

To me the solution would be to agree on a budget with the Council for such activities and they would decide how to operate with it (to be honest, we don't want to be in the discussion of who to support with how much money).
