[edit] Final Report
In week 43 the last bills have been payed for Miniconf-LT-Berlin/2010. Thank you very much to Joey and all at ffis e.V. involved in the accounting of the event. Things went rather smooth and the account is now at a nice 00.00 €. The last bill was payed to LT e.V. for beverages that Elke had bought for us. I have to admit, i had forgotten about that last bill as it came in rather late and we had already payed one for food to LT e.V. The sum was 222.53 € and our account held only 152.88 €. Joey refused my offer to pay the missing 69.65 € myself and took it out of the debian account. Other than that no money was needed from the 2000 € that DPL had promised in case the conference could not be fully sponsored.
One more thing i need to apologize for: The shipping of the video hardware to N.Y. for debconf10 did not quite work out as planned. A first attempt to ship them failed, so i was a bit late in the process when i finaly got the packages on their way. If everything would have worked out as promised by the shipping agency (Schenker GmbH) things would have been fine. They were not. So extra effort, nerve and money was needed by the video team to get the packages cleared from US Customs. My sincere apologies for that!

Also of course thanks a lot again to everyone involved in making the conference a success!
Without you it would have not happened.
In retrospect i can say, i would do it again, maybe in 2012. In 2011 i will try to be involved in debconf11.
Mistakes were made, lessons learned. So, next attempt can only be better :)

After-Event Meeting
I have sent out mail to Berlin Orga Team with a proposed date for a critical look on mini-debconf. Date: Thu, 17.6.2010 19:00 Place: C-Base Everybody is welcome to join http://doodle.com/vthuubwpymaaeu7m
Mini Debconf is over. *sigh* We sure hope that everyone who participated had fun all the way. We very much want to thank all helpers, technicans and speakers for making the event work out as well as it did. We also want to thank Messe Berlin, LinuxTag e. V. and ffsi e. V. for making this happen in the hope that LinuxTag as well as Debian will profit from this. We managed to stream all talks and record all talks but two. All recorded talks will be archived as soon as they are processed. on behalf of the team: Ferdinand (who would do this again at LinuxTag or elsewhere)
