Before the subsidy (and also after),

Why not a much simpler (and less scary) policy like:
"Refunds are not available regularly,
but expections can be given by $whoever"
This tells "we will decide, if your reasons are reasonable for us"
without using ugly lawyer wording.

As hacklab 1 is full of coffee and pollito crowing
and hacklab 2 is quite unfit for collaborate work (small tables),
I suggest hacklab 2 to be the silent one.

The debconf-video license is a modifed MIT license,
more exactly: The word "software" ist replaced by the word "work".
So it can be regarded as nearly the same thing,

Aren't volunteers those, who aren't sponsored for debcamp at
When the original dates where announced
(DebCamp: 25th - 31st July 2011, DebConf: 1st - 7th August 2011),
there was a suggestion to arrive one day earlier
(24th July for DebCamp, and 31st July for DebConf).
Is this still valid with the new dates?
(would be 16./23. July)

Hi,
I'd like to volunteer for debconf9,
although I cannot speak any Spanish, just German and English.
If this language issue isn't a problem,
I'd be happy to help in the second week,
and if it's possible to stay until July 31, I could help with cleanup, too.
