Dear DC20 bid teams, We are in the process of evaluating both of your bids and need some additional information before coming to a final decision.
You may have received some of these requests before, but in summary: For team Haifa: o Please amend your budget estimation with the conference dinner sponsored attendee quota. o Please supply grand totals for the whole of DebCamp and DebConf for any given guesstimate of attendees. For team Lisbon: o Please double-check whether you can get additional support from DDs or other significant Debian contributors from the Iberian peninsula, or elsewhere in Europe. We'd love to get nudges from people that commit to take over a role, say for leading content or fundraising or other specific tasks. We expect a Lisbon DebConf to be rather big (~500+ people). This means people residing in Lisbon will need to focus on getting the complex accommodation situation well sorted early (contracts, monitor allocation contingents and thus minimize cancellation fees across various hotels). We plan to review your feedback during CW 8, so please have everything documented on the Debian wiki and the salsa git repositories by 17.02.2019 23:59 UTC. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out via email (debconf-team mailing list) or IRC (#debconf-team channel). Daniel for the DebConf committee
