actually might be good to have a debcamp style event of 1-2 days
before / after the main event.. basically find a venue either same /
alternative (eg. Sarai in Delhi ). Just helps to build more concrete
activity.

also have more shared repositories/DVD sets...
I have etch i386 mirror (apt-mirror) which i carry around.. (will also
update the i386+amd64 debmirror on network)..  both available in
delhi.
will also download the official DVD sets.. idea being there be a local
primary source of mirror/DVD isos.
