Mini-DebConf in Vietnam 2010
Welcome to the wiki page for MiniDebConf during FOSSASIA in Vietnam from Nov. 12-14 in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon)
During visiting the Mini DebConf 2010 at the Linuxtag in Germany, a group of people discussed with Andrew Lee about organizing a Debian-related event during FOSSASIA in Vietnam. Andrew suggested to start with emailing potentially interested DDs and setting up a wiki page. We believe many DDs would love to join the DebConf in Vietnam
So, this is a wiki page to gather all information required to organize the event.
