Debconf 16 will take place in Cape Town, South Africa, from Saturday, 2 July to Saturday, 9 July 2016. It will be preceded by 9 days of DebCamp, from Thursday, 23 June to Friday, 1 June 2016. Registration is now open for DebConf16. Please visit the website [0], log in, and register your attendance. More details, below. [0]: <https://debconf16.debconf.org> To request bursaries (sponsorship) for food, accommodation, or travel, you must be registered by Sunday, 10 April 2015. After this date, registrations will still be accepted in any of the basic, professional, and corporate categories. However, accommodation on the campus will no longer be guaranteed, and requests for sponsorship will no longer be accepted. Even if you are not certain you will be able to attend, we recommend registering now. You can always cancel your registration, before the deadline. We do suggest that attendees begin making travel arrangements as soon as possible, of course. We have a registration FAQ [1], which will slowly be expanded, as people ask difficult questions during registration. [1]: <https://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/DebConf16/FAQs> Registration -------------- If you want to attend DebConf16 please fill out the registration form, available on your profile [2]. [2]: <https://debconf16.debconf.org/accounts/profile/> As in recent years, the conference registration is integrated with the Debian single sign-on system (SSO). The SSO system is now based on client certificates. If you haven't used them, yet, you'll want to brush up on the documentation. [3] [3]: <https://wiki.debian.org/DebianSingleSignOn> If you are a Debian member, or have an account on Alioth, you can use Debian SSO. If not, this year, you are able to signup with a username and password. You won't have to create Alioth accounts for your children, any more :) There are instructions [4] for registration on the website, if you need more details. And, as always, we have a DebConf Code of Conduct [5] and a Debian Code of Conduct that apply to our participation at DebConf.

See our visa information page [7] for more details.

If you or your company would like to give back to Debian, please consider becoming a sponsor [9] [9]: <https://debconf16.debconf.org/> We look forward to seeing you in Cape Town In July!
