FYI: for a conf I worked on this past summer we had the US State Dept. as a sponsor of the conference. (we dedicated one track for part of the conf to be a Tech@State<http://tech.state.gov/> conference). so, with more than a few State Dept. contacts and the Secretary of State herself making a statement about the conference, still we weren't able to get any sort of help with visas. so, short version: don't expect any special help from the government. otoh, the previous year was in Haifa (Israel) and there we did get significant visa help from the government. -Jeremy _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list [email protected] http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
