 This ticket is to request funding for a Fedora documentation FAD,
 including downstream partners from RHEL and CentOS. See the wiki planning
 page:

 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAD_Documentation_2016

 The current travel+lodging estimate is $2425. There is one potential
 attendee I haven't heard back from who may need up to $1600. Note that
 some attendees are able to use their own Red Hat travel budget and don't
 need FAD funding.

 Ruth Suehle indicated FAD funding often includes funding for one evening
 social event. If so, I would request $400. If not, don't worry about it.

 This is the first time I've gone through the FAD funding process. Please
 let me know if there's anything I've missed.

Comment (by pfrields):

 The FAD event is scheduled for beginning of May, around the availability
 of several participants. Could we have the Council please give us some
 feedback as soon as possible on this proposal?  Thanks!

Comment (by pfrields):

 To clarify the budget -- the potential attendee Shaun mentions is a tools
 person from Red Hat content services to work with the Docs community folks
 on tooling (including hackfest on Sunday, assuming things go well).  This
 probably adds $2.2K to the budget.  A bunch of us are traveling in cheap
 to make room for the two international fares, as well as contribution of
 e.g. dinner from outside the Fedora FAD budget.  So the total cost here is
 probably close to $4.8K.  If this is too high to approve, we can try to
 seek some other sort of cost split.  But again, we need feedback ASAP to
 do that.  Much appreciated, Council folks!

Comment (by mattdm):

 I am very supportive of this FAD; I think it is instrumental in
 reinvigorating this vital part of the project.

 However, we're _right_ in the middle of discussing this year's overall
 budget. I'm really sorry the budget came to us so late (more than a month
 into this FY!), but that's out of our hands. We have our next big meeting
 about the budget on Monday. Paul, Shaun, if we call for lazy consensus
 ending a week from now (needs at least three + votes and no -s), will that
 be soon enough, or would you consider it more urgent than that?

Comment (by shaunm):

 Thanks Matthew, and sorry for the last-minute planning on our side. Right
 now, we're three weeks out from when people would need to travel. Flight
 costs can fluctuate wildly this late. The delay doesn't affect my ability
 to attend. I'm guessing the same is true for Paul, Jared, and Zach, since
 they're coming by car. Pete told me the delay won't affect his ability to
 attend. Ryan and Silas are international, so they might be trickier.

We are discussing the budget but we already took aside enough for this FAD
to make it happen. Docs are very important and if it stays at 4800$ as Paul
said, I'm +1 for it (lazy consensus).

Comment (by mattdm):

 Okay, so, I'm going to go ahead and call for lazy consensus by the end of
 the day on Monday, April 18. That gives all council members time to digest
 a little bit after the Monday budget meeting. We should at least have the
 attention of all council members... if anyone needs a little more
 (reasonable) amount of time, please ask for it. (Or, we can possibly get
 unanimous agreement before Monday.)

 Robert already replied on the council list with a +1 to budget of $4800,
 and Remy with +1 to under $5000, and I'll add my +1 as well. That's
 sufficient to pass if there are no negative votes.

 +1 I am also very in favor of the collaborative (multi-distro) nature of
 this FAD.
