And... One more question: I think that one issue many others will come back to is also your team's involvement in DebConf. Although you have several DDs, and several non-DDs who have attended several DebConfs, I do not remember you having yet been involved in the organization — Of course, this is not and cannot be a hard issue, and has not been in the past (we have seen several times over where the local teams are completely new to Debian, but do great work). Anyway - We cannot ignore that you are bidding against Portland, and the main proponents are very long-time related to Debian, and have been involved with DebConf organization. How do you think your team can counter or answer to this fact?
I think this is relevant as long as having long term DDs in the main team affects the organization of the event. If that is the case, then we are at a clear disadvantage.
Nevertheless, we have a clear vision of what a DebConf should be in terms of organization, spirit and results. Some of the team members have organized other successful, similar events:
- 6 editions of "Cayapas Canaima", a debconf-like event with hacklabs, talks and BoFs.
- Debian Day. - National Free Software Congress (CNSL). - Latin American Free Software Install Festival (FLISOL).We get the full spectre of the goals to achieve, since DDs, and many of the non-DDs are developers to other local projects that involve Debian packaging flow, ticket triaging, general bug squashing and several other Debian-related processes.
