The second option (compromise) is to keep the Debian look as a sideline (kind of awkward) and employ a professional to look at the conference specifically.
This is the tradition for DebConf, every year has its own look. For comparison, see:
http://debconf15.debconf.org/ http://debconf14.debconf.org/ http://debconf13.debconf.org/ http://debconf12.debconf.org/ http://debconf11.debconf.org/ etc...We have total freedom to take the site for DebConf 16 in any creative direction we want. It's common to include some tribute to the main Debian logo somewhere in the design, but not required.
For other Debian-related sites, including the main http://debconf.org, individuals can volunteer to help the people who run those sites, but it's outside our scope as the DebConf 16 team.
