This timeframe is really nothing new. The debconf team has commited on it almost a year ago after DebConf6, so that the localteam holding Debconf has a lot time to prepare stuff in advance. The earlier a venue is choosen, the more time you have to prepare the venue and the event. Also we'll select a backup location, so in case something happens to the choosen location we have another place to go. And of course we will take the distance in time into consideration when making the decision, we cant and we wont expect hard quotes on costs, for example. But you should still be able to give more than a general idea :) regards, Holger
