Re: [Debconf-team] DebConf- Aigars Mahinovs

By all means, please concentrate on running the conference now. This can be handled later, when the end figures on the funding are clear. In the past conferences there was often a surplus of funds left over at the end. Some years the organizers actually communicated attendee figures to caterers day by day so as not to cook extra unneeded food and the costs shifted with that.

One alternative avenue to try would be to provide me with a cancellation invoice that states how much I paid, with which card, that the attendance was cancelled and how much money was returned to me (in this case - 0) and I could try to get that back from the credit card travel insurance policy. But that also can wait until after the end of the conference itself.

Dear Aigars,

sorry to hear that you fell sick. We hope that you'll get well quickly!

We can't refund the payment unfortunately as we have paid the cost to the venue, caterers etc. already and can't get refunded that shortly before the conference anymore either.

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

Kind regards,
Daniel
for the DebCamp orga team

I am very sad to inform you guys that due to a severe last minute sinus infection I was advised by my doctor to cancel my flight to Cape Town and this means that I will fully miss Debconf 16 after all. :(

This has three main implications:

1) please cancel my planned talk

2) you will need to organise an alternate responsible for taking the group photo. I can help remotely by providing some instructions and editing the final result together.

3) I would much appreciate if it would be possible to reverse my credit card payment for the Debconf/Debcamp fees on the invoice attached below
