[ros-general] Chemnitz Linux Days 2024

[Daniel Reimer]

And the 2nd try, now on general ML, too.


Hello guys,


I still look for one or two ppl joining us to Chemnitz Linux Days 2024. 
Somone interested? Of course I prefer these ppl who know the project, 
like devs and long time community members.

If you wanna take part, ping me here or on 
https://chat.reactos.org/reactos/channels/clt-2024 please.

P.S. If I don't get enough ppl this time, I will cancel our booth there 
last minute. Something like last year will not happen again. Last year 
was quite a hassle as the booth always needs at least one person 
available there. Difficult if you are there all alone most of the time. 
I had enough sarcasm and aversion regarding our project last year and at 
least one more permanent person there is the minimum to stand our ground 
and properly answer the questions of some ppl who show up. There are 
even a few ppl that claim we have zero interest in new devs and claim to 
have talked to us in Chemnitz in the past regarding supporting us. This 
is even possible tbh... I try to write down anything important, but 
sometimes maybe some things slipped through if there are 3-4 ppl waiting 
to ask questions. I know that many of our core members think that PR is 
of no use at all, but this is where I think different. People out there 
think we are close to complete breakdown of the project, no progress, no 
devs, no common goal we aim to accomplish and always kicking around new 
devs that wanna help. Some even thought we already are a goner and were 
surprised to even see our booth there. This is nothing we should ignore 
at all! So check your calendars and reply plz!

P.P.S: I already got a reply from a guy from overseas, but I don't think 
it would be ideal to accept that he comes over by plane and then after a 
weekend will be discarded again. I'd feel a bit abused by that in his 
place tbh. Anyways, without some other member who can take over and 
answer questions on the booth aka a member of the project or long term 
follower, I won't need to think about that as this would mean that we 
won't show up in Chemnitz after 10+ years in a row. So... Someone 
interested in giving a helping hand? Costs is not the problem btw, we 
have the money to pay for the expenses
