At least two months ago we didn't certainty we'd have enough money to cover the conference's expenses, and two weeks ago we didn't know for sure on how to allocate room and food sponsorship - which are IMO more important to cover than travel sponsorship. So, imperfect as it is, we could not have done it much better anyway. _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list Debconf-team@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
