If you need help obtaining a visa, please send a mail to visa@debconf.org, 
asking for help. You will then receive an invitation letter which shall help 
you getting the visa.

So it seems you registered, great! (I can't check atm, as I'm writing this 
offline.) I hope you asked for food+accomodation sponsorship as well as 
travel sponsorhip, even better if you indicated some sum you could pay 
yourself. We will grant sponsorship based on a number of factors, like degree 
of involvement in Debian, whether you submitted a talk or workshop and the 
amount of money you requested (vs. the amount you can pay yourself). We are 
much more likely to give out food+accom sponsorship, than travel sponsorship 
though. 


regards,
