[edit] Why?

Cheese is Good For You. Wine also helps.

Cheese and Wine parties are now a tradition for Debconf. The event is very simple: bring good stuff from your country, preferrable cheese, wine and|or any other good stuff that can be drunk or eaten. Even if you don't bring anything, feel free to participate: our priorities are our users and free cheese.

For Debconf10, a "my beer is better than yours" side party may happen along with the Cheese and Wine party, as a followup to recent threads that suggested that all US beers taste like Budweiser.
