The next BAD http://bad.debian.net/ meeting might also be an opportunity. I'll be there, and we may have a fair bit larger than typical turnout - 20th birthday/anniversary celebration (& fundraiser) 'n all that. That was also mentioned on BALUG-announce - so that might bring in some more folks. http://lists.balug.org/pipermail/balug-announce-balug.org/2013-July/000214.html there are over 800 email addresses subscribed to BALUG-Announce: http://lists.balug.org/pipermail/balug-admin-balug.org/2013-April/000706.html Could mention it also on BAD list, but cross-posting is hazardous to begin with - and many lists will bounce the posting if there are too many recipients anyway.
