<div class="gmail_quote">@ubuntu loco mailing list owners/administrators: Check your spam mail, you might have already been contacted.<br>@ubuntu-cy: I have collected some more information about the event.<br><br>(Sorry if you got this email more than once!)<br>
<br>I am forwarding an invitation sent out to ubuntu-cy-owner (mailing list) email. It's an educational event -- a conference where people from all around Europe would meet, show and experience innovations of the Internet and the new computer era in general. It looks really interesting: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uhbu4cWJZTU" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uhbu4cWJZTU</a><br>
<br>I have contacted Claudia Barquet, the Campus Party Europe/Research Team Leader, who gave me a bit more information about it, so I decided to forward it to other mailing lists.<br>Feel free to forward it to anyone interested. :)<br>

<br>I have some questions regarding the invitations:<br>1. Was the invitation meant for only the administration team or for all the ubuntu-cy members?<br><br>2. Do we have to do anything, such as presentations or project showcase, in order to receive the invitation?<br>
<br>3. The travel and accomodation expenses are all paid <u><b>before or after</b></u>
we arrive at the event? What kind of accomodation is it, e.g. the name
of the accomodation? Can you give more information about this and some
pictures of the accomodation area (do we share bathrooms, how many
persons in a room, etc.)?<br><br>Cheers,<br><font color="#888888">Savvas Radevic</font><br><font color="#888888">aka medigeek</font><br></blockquote><br><div><br>Re 2:<br></div>

Any ubuntu-cy member or internet activist can apply with a project. That's OK.<br>

1. The ubuntu-cy administration can choose only one member to<br>
represent us? And that person will travel cost-free to the event?<br>
2. In order to travel cost-free, does ubuntu-cy have to participate to<br>
the event with a project?<br>
<br>
Thanks again and sorry for the trouble!<br>

Campus Party Europe has launched a call to all the internet and
technology passionate who on top of that have a project or are
collaborating in anything related to Campus Party Europe, in this sense
everyone can apply for an Invitation. The process is simply: go to the
web page, register as Campusero first, and then apply for a Campus
Party Europe by submitting a description of the project you are in.<br><br>
About the Ubuntu-Cy administrative staff; the invitation is not
restricted to only one person, but if already you have a nice project
or idea and someone would like to assist to campus party, then this is
in a way "a fast track registration"<br><br>
It would be a wonderful idea if you could widespread the Campus Party
Europe call among all your community members and encourage them to go
to the web and register themselves, so we can have the best of Cyprus
represented.<br><br>
Hoping to hear back from you soon,<br><br>
All the best,<br><br>
