I have wired and wireless networking, a full local debian mirror and several architectures in the house:

 * i386 (of course)
 * powerpc
 * alpha
 * amd64 (I know...!)
 * mipsel (needs some kernel work... :-( )

And we have an offer of remote access to an ia64 box.

Bring a laptop, power cables and ethernet cables if you need them.

To kill as many of the sarge-related bugs as possible from the list at
http://bugs.debian.org/release-critical/

1. Squash the bugs!

November 27th to 28th 2004

If we all pull together, we can get the RC bugs killed and help make sarge a great (if late) release. Everyone's welcome to join us in person, and we'll be active on irc.oftc.net, #debian-uk too if you want to help but can't make it physically.

If you want to come either day, please let me know. There's even (limited) crash space available. See below...
