Tell us the following:
* What do you need covered? (Please estimate the costs in USD: hotel $X,
travel $Y.)
Having my travel (around 1000USD) covered and part of the hotel (238USD,
which is 4nights with a roomate) would be great.
* If we cannot provide a full subsidy, will a partial subsidy be helpful?
(Yes/No?)
Yes
* If Yes, specify the minimum amount you need covered to facilitate your
attendance.
At least the plane ticket.
* What will you accomplish by being at FUDCon? (Please be as specific as
possible, since this is the most important factor in granting requests.)
I am taking part on a wide contribution area. I am active as a translator
(coordinator), an ambassador, a websites maintainer, a doc publisher.. And
I really want to join the ARM effort, will soon.
Therefore, while at the FUDCon I will be able to join many groups, work on
several subjects and get many things done. I have been the main websites
maintainer for several releases now, and still have many huge changes to
do on the building side, and I hope to be able to meet people from the
infra and the websites teams there.
* If you are requesting airfare, include complete flight information such
as flight numbers, desired departure and arrival airports, and times. Also
let us know if you have specific time restrictions.
I will leave the 16th from Paris and return the 21 to Paris, France. The
flight search is
[http://www.orbitz.com/shop/airsearch?type=air&ar.type=roundTrip&ar.rt.lea...
| here] and the requested one is the cheapest:
fligth costs $989.39, Lufthansa 9334 − United Airlines 6443; United
Airlines 5644 − Lufthansa 9335
* Do you need a visa or other official processing before you can attend
FUDCon? If so, approximately how long does that processing take?
Will need to register, it's easy and I will handle the fees.
* Include any additional, relevant information.
Yeah, I am from the EMEA region. But I think it is important for our
community to understand how work other regions, and getting to know better
people is always good.

I would like to have my travel covered and a part of the hotel would be
nice.
* travel eDreams on 2012-10-29, from January 16th to January 22nd: ~US$900
* hotel the wiki pages says US$119/night, if the three nights from the

I have been working with the infrastructure team for 18months now, but I
have not had the chance to meet most of them. This FUDCon would be an
occasion to do this for me.
In addition, we need to think as a group the way we want to do our web-
application development especially wrt framework and imho unit-tests.
I am also involved in setting up jenkins instances on our cloud but there
is much more we can do with it and I would be quite interesting to discuss
or even possibly work on this over there.
* If you are requesting airfare, include complete flight information such
as flight numbers, desired departure and arrival airports, and times. Also
let us know if you have specific time restrictions.
I found these flights which looks interesting:

16:28 Kansas City, MO (MKC)
Tue, 22-Jan-13
15:51 Kansas City, MO (MKC)
09:20 (+ 1) Amsterdam (AMS)
Both are with United Airlines
* Do you need a visa or other official processing before you can attend
FUDCon? If so, approximately how long does that processing take?
Yes and no, as a european citizen I have to apply at the Electronic System
for Travel Authorization (ESTA) for the said authorization to stay on US
ground.
* Include any additional, relevant information.
None that I foresee.

Please set the "Component" below to the correct event for your request.
*** BACKGROUND: While I had not originally intended to be at FUDCon EMEA,
I was invited to participate in a panel at the Open World Forum, which
overlaps and is co-located with day 1 of FUDCon, and it probably makes
sense to attend both events. My travel budget for the year was already
allocated when this opportunity arose (rather suddenly), so I'm applying
for funding for FUDCon accommodation. ***
Tell us the following:
* What do you need covered? (Please estimate the costs in USD: hotel $X,
travel $Y. Please note that for FUDCon Paris, hotel costs per person (in
a shared room) are EUR122, or approximately $150 USD.)
Hotel during FUDCon - EUR122/USD$150.
* If we cannot provide a full subsidy, will a partial subsidy be helpful?
(Yes/No?)
Yes (probably!)
* If Yes, specify the minimum amount you need covered to facilitate your
attendance.
Still awaiting word from other funding sources, so I'm not sure at this
point.
* What will you accomplish by being at FUDCon? (Please be as specific as
possible, since this is the most important factor in granting requests.)
There is growing interest in the Fedora ARM project in the EMEA region. As
a participant in the Fedora ARM project (my research group operates the
Fedora ARM koji buildsystem and is working on the RasPi remix) I would
like to coordinate with these Fedora contributors.
Specifically, I would like to have a test/hack session on the Raspberry Pi
remix, and a discussion about EMEA-specific needs and interests in the
Fedora ARM Secondary Architecture.
* If you are requesting airfare, include complete flight information such
as flight numbers, desired departure and arrival airports, and times. Also
let us know if you have specific time restrictions.
Airfare (YYZ-CDG) should be covered by other funding.
* Do you need a visa or other official processing before you can attend
FUDCon? If so, approximately how long does that processing take?
No, Canada is apparently on the visa waiver list for the Schengen Region.
* Include any additional, relevant information.
I will be representing the Fedora ARM project and talking about teaching
Open Source at the OWF, Oct 11-13.
