I agree with you on this point - Basing the decision just on the
formal timing would be a bit silly. And nobody (yet?) complained about
the Boston bid, also extemporary(sp?). Still, some of the people in
Boston are well known already (although not as DebConf organizers, but
still). 

Anyway... Please don't consider my last post in any way as a veto -
Heh, it would be _very_ hard to veto if I have not been active as an
organizer! :) Just as a point to pay attention to.

José, please explain a bit into this: You are Venezuelan. I understand
your recent contacts in Ecuador push you towards putting Quito as a
possible bid. What is _your_ opinion regarding the Venezuela bid? Are
you planning on joining the DC10 orga team whether it is in Venezuela
or in Ecuador?

Well, we still plan on releasing Lenny by September, right?
