Pune is definitely a good strategic city.
Close to Asia's 1 of the busiest airport i.e. Mumbai & accessible from
Bangalore,Hyderabad,Cochin & other metro cities by several mode of
transportations.

I have a wild guess that University of Pune aka Savitribai Phule
university can help to host DebConf.

I have attended Cent OS DOJO event in University Of Pune's campus few
years back arranged by Pune Linux User Group.

University Of Pune has many dormitories.
Date just need to be when its holiday time for university students I guess. :-)
