Debian (and possibly also indlinux, being represented in the form of
debian-in) into one single project day.

Gutsy is released some time in October, so I'd assume you're talking
of Gutsy+1. FOSS.in IIRC is sometime in early December.

In what form ? Contributions in the form of code, bug triaging,
