I will like to have subsidy for hotel room and air fare.

(Yes/No)
Yes, partial subsidy will help. I will need air fare covered.

fully implement workshops on those topics.

to start a more personal link.

* What do you need covered? (Please estimate the costs in USD: hotel $X,

Hotel: about $90 (probably less if I share a room with someone), Travel:
about $1,749 (I wish I could find something less expensive)

I want to help with the design workshop, and also mockup and implement new
design for ask.fedoraproject.org.
* 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.
Departure: Ben Gurion International Airport, Tel Aviv, Israel.

ticket from another airline in addition, the closest location I can get to
without ordering tickets in two different airlines is Washington DC.
Flight numbers: not sure yet.
* Do you need a visa or other official processing before you can attend

Yes, visa and a passport, I'm not sure how long this is going to take.

This is my last opportunity to attend a Fudcon in the next 3 years,
because, from July, I'll be on 3 years mandatory military service for 3
years, during this time I won't have much time to contribute to Fedora.
Furthermore, I'm only 17 and I don't have a job, so I won't be able to
attend without funding.
Thanks.

This is mostly a heads up that I would like to participate in FUDCon
Blacksburg. A quick check shows the a return trip from Mumbai + taxi
from Pune to Mumbai and back to be around $1750. I intend to present Ask
Fedora and maybe run a hackfest as well if enough people show interest.
Since Ask Fedora should already be in production launch and in good use,
we will have our assorted set of feature requests and issues to fix. I
will update this ticket with more information as needed.

Component: FUDCon India 2011 | Keywords:

* What do you need covered? (Please estimate the costs in USD: hotel $X,
travel $Y)
I'll need travel and accommodation to be covered. As of 11 Aug 2011, the
flight rate from KL to Mumbai for 2nd November till 9th November is around
USD440 (includes food+15kg luggage+sports equipment, but see below). As
for accommodation, I'm ok with any places which I can sleep in sleeping
bag :-)
Sports equipment -> thinking of bringing along a folding bike, though
wondering whether that'll be a good idea or not, else no.
* If we cannot provide a full subsidy, will a partial subsidy be helpful?
(Yes/No)
* If Yes, specify the minimum amount you need covered to facilitate
your attendance.
Yes, 400USD
* What will you accomplish by being at FUDCon? (Please be as specific as
possible, since this is the most important factor in granting requests.)
- Interact with other APAC contributors and ambassadors I have known since
the past several years but had not have the opportunity to meet them in
real life, and hopefully, figure out more ideas on how to grow Fedora
presence in APAC.
- Experience a FUDCon with the general goal of organizing one in the
future.
- Thinking of giving a talk, but not quite sure what the topic yet as this
will be my first FUDCon and not quite sure what to expect. Gave a number
of talks in several local conferences before but they are mainly beginner
stuff, or Python/Zope related - which I'm not sure whether its relevant
for FUDCon.
- Hacking on GNOME3 extensions and probably some rpms - I wrote the pidgin
integration extension for gnome-shell, and maintains a number of packages.
* 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.
The airline would be AirAsia (www.airasia.com) as thats the cheapest
airline to go to India from Malaysia. Departure would be from Kuala Lumpur
(KUL) and destination is Mumbai (BOM). Departure date would be either 1st
Nov or 3rd Nov (not sure which is better), and return date would be 8th
Nov.
* Do you need a visa or other official processing before you can attend
FUDCon? If so, approximately how long does that processing take?
Yes, as per http://www.indiavisa.com.my/visa_fee.php, it'll cost me around
55USD (i think i'll cover this myself) and will take 2-3 days to process
* Include any additional, relevant information.

It would be very nice and helpful if with a partial subsidy my airfare
could be covered. Booking is already done (2011-09-30 to 2011-10-03,
leaving at 2011-10-02 makes the flight very expensive), here are my final
costs:
* Airfare (Lufthansa) is 133.67 EUR
* Accommodation (Perugino) is 222.00 EUR
I'm not sure if there was a request deadline and if so, I might be too
late due to my vacation. But as said before, booking is done, money is
spent.
If my airfare could be covered, it would be really awesome, but it won't
be the end of the world if not. Oh, I'm not really expecting my
accommodation to be covered, it's just for your overview.
