Dear Wiki user,

The "DebianMed/Meeting/Southport2012" page has been changed by TimBooth:
http://wiki.debian.org/DebianMed/Meeting/Southport2012?action=diff&rev1=60&rev2=61

Comment:
Added sponsors and final confirmations

  After the success of the last [[DebianMed/Meeting/Luebeck2011|Debian Med sprint meeting in Lübeck]] we were granted the opportunity to organise a similar event in early 2012.  This page assists in planning the event and records outcomes of the meeting.
  
  The main organiser is Tim Booth (tbooth_ceh.ac.uk), the lead NEBC Bio-Linux developer.

- Without wanting to taint the non-corporate volunteer nature of Debian, attending these events is expensive.  We thank Debian for supporting the travel of its developers and all the employing institutions for their support. And quite some participants pay the travel from their private pockets. Sponsors for food and travel are welcome.
