Thank you Patty for pointing out this to us,
No, this is NOT true, ask anybody who now me, even these people from the DC7
Delegation Team who visited us, my opinion always was and is that
I want the best for Debian and DebCon7 and that is it.
I am sorry if I sounded to partial on this one, but please take into account
all available facts about the preparations for this conference from both
parties.
We can even make this event on a Balkans level, with DDs from Greece to
Slovenia coming to help in any way they can.
I am sorry if I have be exclusive, but we are very focused and on this bid
and all, we want nothing less than DebConf here, so, if we do not get this
one, maybe we can work for next one, it is just too early to tell now and
hopes are high to get this one.
One of the team members Amila Akagic, former Bosnian LUG president will also
address this issue later today in a more polite manner than myself. I
apologize if I sounded offensive in any way towards anyone. We have best
intentions both for Debian GNU/Linux and FOSS community in general.

Safir Secerovic
