I would actually not have thought this a given. Could you provide some statistics, regarding how many visa applications were denied (raw numbers / percentage of total visa applications), as well as information about any patterns you're aware of in the denied applications? E.g., people applying too late, countries of origin, relatives in the US, prior convictions for drug running in Patagonia? This information would be useful to the Portland team for preparing our plan of attack for visa handling, and it may also be interesting to the DebConf committee in their bid evaluation.
