Well, we don't need to announce the extension before the original deadline, it's good if the original deadline encourages people to register quickly first. :) But yes, let's make an extension, because of your original request (announcing in conferences) and also because of Holger's reasons: > further thinking about the "last mile problem" (aka busses) and this led me to > wonder whether it would be sensible to extend cfp, travel + food+accom > sponsorship deadlines _all_ to May 19th. > and, if so, decide + _publish_ this fast and then soon after / even better at > the same time improve+publish the bus information, ie the public bus tables > from Zagreb (and elsewhere?) to Banja Luka plus a "holdable promise" of > special shuttles (taxis?), ie one or two per day - except on maybe two days > where we'll actually have busloads of arrivals. Any announcements within Debian should of course emphasise that this is a one-off extension (we can say, due to additional support from the government), that won't lead to further extensions of deadlines this year or in future years! -- Moray _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list Debconf-team@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
