That's a debit card, not a credit card, then. > If invoices are required, then Debian should book flights for people or > find some other solution to receive those documents, without asking > people to book there flights in the hope that they will be reimbursed > later - the result is probably that those people who are not able to > attend without being sponsored are not able to come at all because they > can't pay that sum in advance. I'd happily use my credit card to book tickets if I had an up-front commitment from Debian I'd be reimbursed, whether I needed to provide an invoice or not. (Heck, I (personally) would be ok with doing it off my debit card too, since I can afford the liquidity without wanting to bear the cost myself.) And of course, others might have tighter liquidity and so what you say applies. I just don't think it'll apply for everybody. -- Tollef Fog Heen UNIX is user friendly, it's just picky about who its friends are -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-project-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
