Hey Jeroen, <br><br>could you imagine participation cost in Linuxtag, Berlin and FAD-EMEA-2007 , i have to fly all the way from Mozambique Africa to Germany :) <br><br>i am here for fun and to support the idea that inspire me, it would be certainly very nice if Fedora can afford to reimburse our travling cost (in fact very indeed for Fedora Ambassadors), but we(me) can't/never stop supporting our feeling(Fedora)...!
