Wow, this is great to hear! Personally, I believe that having Debconf in
Nicaragua would be amazing.

Thank you!

We think that we can make DebConf12 an amazing event and a great experience for all of you.

just to clarify, that is in *Central* America. Even with that

Yes. Many people still have the image of Nicaragua as a volatile country with civil wars and political instability. We still have problems (as everybody else), but Nicaragua is a safe country and very friendly and open towards other cultures. I highly recommend http://vianica.com/ if you want to learn more about Nicaragua.
