Martin Michlmayr <tbm@cyrius.com> is working with the local organizers in Spain to put this meeting together.
Meeting Point
The meeting point will be Terminal 4 on the arrivals floor (ground floor). César Gómez Martín will be outside on the taxis and buses area waiting for you all. The people arriving to a different terminal should take the free bus to T4. César will be there waiting at 15:00 (local time). The bus will leave as soon as everybody is there, which is probably at around 17:00. Those who arrive early will unfortunately need to wait fairly long.
In case you have any troubles, you can contact César at +34 651 116409

Talks
Automated mails to maintainers by Lucas Nussbaum
Automated mails to maintainers to inform them of their pkg status Discussing the ideas outlined in http://lists.debian.org/debian-qa/2006/11/msg00029.html Ideally, it would take place near the start of the QA meeting, so there's time left for coding if people find the idea interesting.
Making automated testing a collaborative work by Lucas Nussbaum
Making automated testing a collaborative work: QA team ? Automated testing of the archive (rebuilds, piuparts runs, etc) are often done by one developer. The idea is to discuss how working as a team could improve the efficiency of such tasks. Like (1), it would mostly be a discussion about this, after a short introduction.
Evaluating Wotomae - a distribution wide tracker tool by Raphael Hertzog
Wotomae comes from "WOrking TOgether MAde Easy". It has been developed by Arnaud Fontaine during the summer of code. We should review the tool and the code and decide if we can/should promote it and maybe adapt it. In any case sending some feedback to Arnaud would help him improve it. http://wiki.debian.org/DWTT http://wotomae.debian.net
Some nice tools from EDOS by Fabio Mancinelli
In this talk we will briefly describe the ongoing work in the EDOS Project with respect to the formal management of software dependencies, and we will show live demos of the tools we have developed so far in order to tackle important issues in package-based distribution management. The talk will be mostly demo-oriented and "interactive" from the point of view of the discussion.
