DebConf9/Bids

This page is historical/informational.

Information for bidders

• Talk to joerg@debconf.org to get an address in debconf.net assigned! (Can point to your host(s) but can also host the servers for you on debconf.org resources)
• Be sure to get and fill out the LocationCheckList - That's our main working document!
• Link to your country's proposal from this page, in the next section. It must be ready before June 16, so it is presented at DebConf7.
  • If nobody from the bidding group can attend DebConf7, please inform the DebConf organizing team so you are still taken into account.
• A decision should be reached by August-September.

Old (and deprecated) information

The following information was posted as mere tentatives. Of course, I do not want to make it unavailable - If you posted it and are withdrawing the bid, please remove it. Otherwise, it will probably be ignored anyway ;-)
