Dear Bursary Team, I hope you're doing well.
I’m writing to kindly ask if there are any updates on the second round of bursary decisions for DebConf25. Waiting for the 2nd round of bursaries , but I haven’t seen any communication yet. The reason I’m reaching out is that I’m facing increasingly tight timelines to apply for a French visa from India. The appointment wait times are currently quite long, and any further delay could make it very difficult for me to attend DebConf this year, even if my bursary is approved. If possible, I’d greatly appreciate any update or tentative timeline, as this would help me plan accordingly and begin the visa process as soon as possible. Thank you for your time and for all the work you're doing to support participants.
