For the record, I disagree with your way of depicting history. As far as I'm concerned, there was way more than "it was already chosen" in my [0] reasoning in favour of Le Camp: proximity to locals [1], fitting with our vision [2], prices [3,4], timing of the discussions to change venue with regards to progress made with Le Camp, etc. I'm not sure it's the right place, time and thread to further debate that subject, though. OdyX [0] As I don't want to generalize it to others. [1] Which is interesting in two ways: we can more easily go to the venue and we can more easily contact sponsors. The canton just got added as Gold sponsor, as a direct result of local lobbying by a team member. [2] And thereby "motivation of the involved people" [3] As mere example, the St-Moritz proposal <201212051508.30046.o...@debian.org> had beds for twice the price and didn't include talk rooms. [4] The budget we had in the original bid is per-day (aka it was for two weeks, now we currently have one), very similar to the finally-DPL-agreed budget. _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list Debconf-team@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
