+We ask that you reconfirm your attendance before April 3. Please
+go to
+
+<a href='https://debconf6.debconf.org/comas/attendees/account/data'>https://debconf6.debconf.org/comas/attendees/account/data</a>
+
+
+and make sure to check the "I confirm my attendance" checkbox if
+you still plan to come. If your plans changed or you don't check
+that checkbox, you will not be considered for the free
+accommodation and food. You could still attend debconf, but you
+would have to pay fully for your lodgings and meals at the
+hotel.
+<br />
+Please add your flight number and arrival/departure date (at the
+airport). We need to know these for booking/planning the hotel and
+coordinating the transport.
+<br />
+You can check for other people arriving at the same time at
+
+<a href='https://debconf6.debconf.org/comas/general/participants'>https://debconf6.debconf.org/comas/general/participants</a>
+<br />
+Check the "keep my flight info private" if you don't want your 
+information to be visible to other participants.
+<br />
+It is highly unlikely that we will be able to hand out notebooks
+this year. We recommend that you bring your own if you want to
+use the network for work.

+
+in order to pick the BoFs and talks you would like to attend
+during Debconf. Our scheduling software will attempt to place the
+events so that as many as possible can attend the lectures and
+meetings they are interested in. If voting is not open yet when you
+read this, you can come back later.
+<br />
+If you would like to host a BoF, please register it soon if you
+want a good timeslot. Generally it will be possible to hold bofs
+even on short notice, if you find a place for it.
