No, you where *not* refused. You were sorted into a queue as we did not
have enough money back then.

The mail to you said:

--88---
We created a queue of those people who are still waiting for sponsoring.
In this queue you are currently on position XX.
--88---

As the mail said you need to contact Andres Schuldei for that, to see if
he is able to get that arrangement for you.

Well, if you haven't already applied for a visa (like some others), its
possible to late, as they take some time, usually around a months or so.
Thats unfortunate, but sorry, I couldnt give out money earlier. If thats
the case please reply, so I can give the money to someone else, and then
hope to see you at DebConf7.

Hi Emfox,

As Joerg already told you, you were just put in the waiting queue, but
not rejected.

Hmmm... I see your case as very complicated - First of all, I don't
have your name in the list of people we are getting a visa
for. Mexican visa tramits have proven to be long, tedious, hard... We
were originally told a visa request takes 35 days, and it seems even
that is an optimistic measure. I can almost assure you we won't be
able to get a visa in time.

And as for sending you the money beforehand: International money
transfers is also a tramit that takes around one week, and is
expensive (around 50 dollars per transfer), so we decided to give
refunds, not send pre-sponsorship. 

I'm sorry... But being realistic, I doubt you will be able to make it
in time :-(

Greetings,

[Debconf-team] about the early arrivals mails

2006-04-21 Thread Alexander Schmehl
Hi!

I just send the mails to those attendees, who arrive before DebConf
starts (IIRC I asked ganneff for a database dump of all people arriving
before the 12th, which have confirmed, want sponsored accomodation and
are not volunteers).

I created a wiki page for the teams to add their members at
http://wiki.debian.org/DebConf6DebCamp and asked them to add themself or
reply to the mail.

Attached a list of people I didn't found necassary to mail for obvious
resons, just for complettness.

List of people and mail test (in script) is in the -data svn repository.

Yours sincerely,
  Alexander
