Hi Giovanni, You can find more info about registration options here: http://debconf11.debconf.org/register.xhtml
This means, you can apply for sponsorship, but it does not mean that you will get it. We have a team of people who decide if someone is eligible for sponsorship, by checking how much they contribute to Debian. We would love to be able to sponsor everyone who requests sponsorship, but it all depends on how much money we end up having for it. You can reserve Hotel Bosna by lover prices that we negotiated with the hotel management. Just say that you are going to attend DebConf. If you need more info, please ask :) Velimir On Fri, May 6, 2011 at 10:43 AM, Giovanni Mascellani <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi all. > > This will be my first DebConf, so I'm seeking some information about how > sponsored registration works.
