Neither is it desirable for Developers or other attendees to have half a dozen of Debconfs not in Europe. There once was the (unwritten, happened to just work based in bids) "switch continents rule". DC2: Montreal (Noth America) DC3: Norway (Europe) DC4: Brazil (South America) DC5: Finland (Europe) DC6: Mexiko (Middle America) DC7: Scotland (Europe) DC8: Argentina (South America) DC9: Spain (Europe) DC10: USA (Noth America) DC11: Bosnia & Hercegovina (Europe) DC12: Nicaragua (Middle America) DC13: Switzerland (Europe) DC14: USA (North America) DC15: Germany (last one in Europe) DC16: South Africa (Africa) DC17: Canada (North America) DC18: Taiwan (Asia) DC19: Brazil (South America) DC20: Israel (Asia[1]) DC21: Lisbon / India / ... So I completely understand this, it is time for Europe. India can try 2022? Regards, Rene [1] For that matter, I personally consider Israel with being nearby Cyprus to be on-par with Europe, but... - cited (personal) "Political issues" and (probably) slightly bigger flight prices than for Lisbon aside.

If the Lisbon bid is like this year (from what I see in the wiki) and it only lost by a small margin, yes, I do. Are you going to propose another Debconf people from Europe possibly can't attend? The last one where this is possible being Debconf15? That would be the seventh debconf in a row not in Europe. Whereas the American continent ha(d/ve) DC17 and DC19. As Daniel already wrote: Outreach is not everything, this is a conference for/with developers, and there are hunndreds of such in Europe and a few in India. Regards, Rene
