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 $150 USD.)
As concerned the accomodation costs I looked the wiki page about FUDCon where it's mentioned that the cost is 81€ per night that amounts to a total of 298$ (or 243€) for the 3 nights. The airplane tickets cost is 273$ (or 222€) That makes a total of 571$ (or 465€) I need everything covered (airplane tickets and hotel).
* 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.
I can't pay more than 245$ (or 200€) so I need at least 326$ (or 265€).
* 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'm a new contributor to fedora and I'd love to meet other community members. Since I'm a fedora ambassador attending FUDCon will help me gain experience which in turn I will share with others, resulting in spreading the world of fedora in Greece and I'll learn many things which will help me in many ways contributing to fedora itself.
* 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.
