Namaste everyone, This is the call for volunteers for bringing in DebConf to India The time to take action for getting DebConf to India is upon us now.
For those who are unaware of DebConf, It is Debian project's Developer conference. In addition to a full schedule of technical, social and policy talks, DebConf provides an opportunity for developers, contributors and other interested people to meet in person and work together more closely. We have around 3 months to take some very important decisions for DebConf Bid 2021. We will need to bid for DebConf 2021 at this years DebConf 19 this year in Curitiba, Brazil. Unlike last year, when we did an Informal bid for a DebConf in India [1] [1] DebConf 20 in your City - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJg7UOSqWJU this year would be a formal bid, with confirmed details of organization of the conference. Over the years we have had some Mini Debian Conferences and DebUtsav's in various cities of India. It would be great if the people who helped with these events join in the planning up for the bid and subsequently for DebConf in India We need volunteers in various roles. I am mentioning some of the roles below. 1. Finding venue suitable for DebConf 2. Approaching colleges/organizations who can host DebConf. 3. Volunteers looking after logistics and operations of the conference. 4. Food arrangements 5. People who can deal with Government authorities (state/centre) regarding various issues ranging from Visa invitations to legal permissions and stuff. 6. People who can handle social media, edit wiki's, write event reports, blogs etc. 7. Designers who can design logo's T-shirts, banners etc. 8 All rounders, who accomplish tasks as they come through. If you are interested in volunteering in for the bid and the subsequent conference tasks please add your names to the volunteers list on this wiki page. And join the communication mediums listed on the page [2] [2] Planning page for Volunteers - https://wiki.debian.org/DebConf/21/Bids/India/planning [Note: Due to spam control restrictions, Debian Wiki accounts can take time, in that case, you can ask some of the existing volunteers or ask on the discussion groups mentioned on that wiki page, and we will add your name there and assign you a suitable task to help out with.] ------- rajudev
