I mailed to herb@debconf.org about this exact issue and no unexpectedly, my
mail was ignored.
Today talking with some localteam people I have gathered part of the
sponsorship money is in Argentina and in case you do not know, it is handled
by "via libre" a very reliable foundation but very slow burocratically.
I am sure Ganneff knows more, but he is too busy now reading -project (but not
