Interpreting the responses of other people, the only problem seems to be immigrations. I'm relatively sure, that this problem can be solved for most DebConf participants. 1. Ask some well-respected organisations (universities, some UN body, whatever we can arrange) to write invitation letters for DebConf participants. I know, that those are sometimes completely ignored, but it's worth a try anyway. 2. Talk to big companies (Google, HP, Intel) and other organisations, what hints they have for us to get people into the US with minimal trouble. 3. Make sure, that expenses for people who try to apply and get rejected are covered. Nobody must fear to just lose 100 USD. 4. Support the work of our video team, so that people, who are unable or unwilling to enter the US, are not completely left out. Cheers. _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list Debconf-team@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
