Re: Food at debconf
Hi,

The school restaurant provides lunchs on July 7th to 11th, 15th, 17th and 18th and is pretty flexible: 1 or 2 days in advance is ok, as long as a reasonable amount of people change their minds. For breakfasts (not brunches), I expect the same flexibility, as we’ll be dealing with local bakeries.
For the other meals, I would expect a 1- or 2-week notice to be the maximum our caterers could accept.
> Is it really now or never (as the form suggests)? I almost certainly want _some_ catered meals but I really don't know how many, which meals, or which days.
> I'm currently stalled on this page for a month and need to do something. If I just say 'no food' and pay up for other things will I starve?
You can pay everything but food now and have quite some time to decide for food later, but unfortunately only the school restaurant is able to handle last-minute changes.
You could still get some food at the mall, 8-ish minutes of bus away from the venue, though.
