The bid page mentions a MiniDebConf that would have happened on February 12, during which new team members would be gathered. February 12 of which year?That was an old MiniDebconf. The plan is to do another this summer, in support of the main DebConf. Possibly one week during the DebConf for the people that can not go to Argentina.This sounds like a nice plan - having a European MiniDebConf in parallel to the Argentinian DebConf. I might be tempted to join :)That could be a dangerous precedent. If regions with high concentration of Debian people start doing MiniDebConfs in parallel with DebConfs that happen in less densely-populated regions, we could be removing the incentive for people to attend DebConf when it is, let's say, not so convenient travel-wise. I understand that not everyone has the availability for longer trips for several reasons, there are carbon footprint concerns, etc. But DebConfs outside of central Europe already have a smaller attendance, it would be nice if we could avoid giving people one more reason not to go. MiniDebConf can be held at any other time of the year.
"MiniDebConfs are local meetings organized by members of the Debian project to achieve goals similar to those of DebConf, but in a regional context." - From Debian Wiki[1]
Doing something similar during DebConf in other locations devalues the efforts of teams from more distant places in organizing the event.
