There is no Debian standard, there is just one application used for
the Debian conference. It is not, by far, a simple application to set
up. And it is quite diverging from upstream.
Different conferences have different needs, information flows, etc.
There is really no documentation on our install, besides an +- one
page long blurb I did together with the mail from Joerg explaining to
me how to use it.
I am sadly too overwhelmed by work, and I fear I should have not taken
many roles I have taken (such as the Penta-master). I frankly cannot
offer you any help, as I'm often frustrated by my lack of time to do
DebConf stuff - and my real life work has been seriously lagging
behind me.
So, please, do not use Penta.
