An option could be to organise a few focused sprints in Portland just
before DebConf. Given that it's a good way to minimize travel costs,
It's reasonable to assume that our next DPL would welcome the idea.
It would be great if at some point someone local could provide a few
directions for that (e.g. recommend a hotel with suitable meeting
rooms).
