Do keep in mind that Israel is as close as Lisbon from Central Europe: From Vienna, Haifa is 2312Km away, Lisbon is 2298Km. Of course, not everything is the same; many people from the EU will travel by rail to countries in the EU (and not because of political affiliations, but because it's _possible_, while I don't exepct many people to arrive to Israel if it's not by air). But, for some measures... Well, Israel is "almost Europe" ☺ > The state of the climate is such that it's increasingly difficult to > justify 2-4 tonnes of emissions just to visit debconf, so I've > missed/am missing the last 4.
