Russel, I have already planned a D workshop @ UCL for this year, but due to some circumstances it is going to be postponed for next year. :( There are few people interested in this and I hope by the time we are ready to do it we will have more. The workshop will most likely be a part of the CREST Open Workshop programme - http://crest.cs.ucl.ac.uk/cow/ . Kind regards |

Given that now I've moved from the fields of Shropshire to a place closer to the centre of civilisation, I would say this would be a good oportunity to do such a thing.

That is my recommendation to you, Andrei. - Try hard to find sponsors for the DConf. Perhaps FSF would help or some other open-source funding organisation? |

I think that's a great idea. I am, of course, trying to bring in Facebook sponsorship. All - please bring the campaign to the attention of interested entities by your employer: recruiters, managers etc.
If you have any contacts that you think I could cold-email, please write me email. In particular, who in FSF would be suitable?
Thanks,
Andrei

Wouldn't FSF have issues with the reference implementation's back end not being free software?
