FAmSCo agreed on sponsoring lodging and travel for two folks in May 14th
meeting. Since Jared and Dennis are also coming, it's a good idea to
book everyone's rooms together, so they can stay at the same hotel.
Would be nice if we coordinate the rooms reservation and FAD activities
in FUDCon Panama.

The invoice for media production was also submitted to the FAmSCo track
and is waiting for approval.
