DebConf18/FAQ
[edit] Registration
[edit] Who can attend?
DebConf is a technical gathering for people involved, in any way, in the Debian project. While anyone is welcome, the conference is filled to the brim with hard core geekness. If you are interested in Debian but not ready for 24/7 hacking, please join us at the Open Day. If you decide you want to attend the conference, you are welcome to, but at that stage we will not be able to guarantee access to food or accommodation.
[edit] How do I register?
[edit] How do I apply for bursaries (sponsorship) for accommodation/food/travel?
To request bursaries (sponsorship) for food, accommodation, or travel, you must be registered by Friday, 13 April 2018. After this date, new bursary applications won’t be considered.

If they do not intend to participate in the conference proceedings, they can be registered under your account. See the Family section
