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)

Great :)
If leaving at August 1st is also ok, penta needs another update.

Aren't volunteers those, who aren't sponsored for debcamp at
It would be cool, if the T-Shirts from Bosnia
would be as large as those from Mexico :)

This is exactly the problem with cc licenses.

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,
and not as a strange homebrewn license.

As hacklab 1 is full of coffee and pollito crowing

I suggest hacklab 2 to be the silent one.

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.

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.
