Folks, Cuba + Debian is a perfect match! The realization of CubaConf.org was a success.
I made a video to show some of the best moments[1] This email is also a support request for reimbursement for the cost I had with the shirts, if possible. A Cuban could not pay $8 or $5 as I had thought for the shirt. A Cuban programmer earns about $20 a month and should pay $2 per 1 hour internet. Altogether 50 Debian shirts were gifted for Cuban and a few Venezuelans and Colombians who attended the event. Some can be seen in photos[3]. A total less than $300 USD[2]. I would be happy if Debian could help me with this expense.
