MiniDebCamp in Thailand
Welcome to wiki page for DebCamp in Thailand.
During visiting Mini DebConf 2009 in Taiwan, a group of Thais (Theppitak, Kitt, Neutron, and Prach) discussed with Andrew Lee about organizing a Debian-related event in Thailand. Andrew suggested to start with organizing a DebCamp. We believe many DDs would love to join the DebCamp in Thailand
So, this is a wiki page to gather all information required to organize the event.
Checklist
Local Team
Kitt <kitty at kitty.in.th> will gather all the people and organize the team. Debian is community-driven, organizing this event should be like that too! For now, he will be the point of contact.
Neutron <neo.neutron at gmail.com> will be local coordinator and local staff.
Thep <thep at debian.org>.
Prach <prachpub at gmail.com>.

In 2006, madduck once suggested to organize DebConf in Thailand.
madduck: back then, I knew some influential people at the TTA and the telecom, but they no longer work there, and after the uprests of last year, and after Singapore bought thai telecom, I don't have contacts anymore. But I will support any Debian activity in Thailand as best as I can.
