Dear colleague, Has the next conference location been chosen? Thank you!
Yes, DebConf for 2020 is already decided (Haifa). November was somewhat late to start a bid.
But DebConf for 2021 is undecided. Now bidding team should start to meet and form a team. It is also a good period to see how a DebConf work, and ask opinion and advice from actual and former teams.
In any case, you still have time. But on November you should have a good plan, and ready to discuss with Debconf people about problem you have encountered, so to have priority and help to finalize the bid.
For sure Russia will be an interesting bid, on the other hand we had a Debian Developer arrested in Russia because he was running a Tor node. Because many DD care a lot about privacy, this could create some fear for many potential participants. I think the bid should assure us about this issue.
If you have any question, fell free to ask them. We have this mailing list (debconf-team@lists.debian.org) and IRC channel #debconf-team on irc.debian.org, as main orga channels.
ciao cate

It would be a great opportunity for us to start new collaborations, and we believe that it would be very interesting to visit Saint-Petersburg for participants. Please, tell us, with whom we could discuss this idea?Usually a proposal do host Debconf at your city should be prepared by, or together with, existing Debian community members in the area. You can start by reading the following wiki page for some requirements that we expect for a Debconf proposal: https://wiki.debian.org/DebConf/General/Handbook/Bids/LocationCheckList
