 Tell us the following:

  * What do you need covered?

 Purely for pricing purposes, the BUF to PHX for round trip is $351 on
 Southwest.com, and whatever the standard rate is for the FUDCon primary
 Hotel, I think nights would be 28th, 29th, 30th, 31st at 229.00/night, or
 $916 for hotel (maybe I'm missing a FUDCon promo reservation link
 though...?) I could discreetly room with Lmacken for much less than that
 though ;)

  * If we cannot provide a full subsidy, will a partial subsidy be helpful?
 (No)
  * What will you accomplish by being at FUDCon?

 I will be representing the work and efforts of the FOSS@RIT Campaign
 (http://foss.rit.edu), and providing storyteller coverage (Text,
 Interviews, Video, and some pics) for our university blog
 (http://innovation.rit.edu & http://foss.rit.edu/blog/decause) and
 possibly http://Opensource.com. I will also make the media available to
 mizmo again this year, for the use of Fedora Comm Arch and Marketing.
 Hopefully I can contribute some useful code written in a hackfest or two
 as well, and maybe wrangle some remote cycles from my student hackers to
 lend a hand too.

 Campaigns included are:
   - HFOSS Course at RIT (OLPC Educational Game Development -
 http://teachingopensource.org Math4 project)
   - CIVX.us (A Moksha App), CapitolCamp'10, http://foss.rit.edu/election
 and other OpenGov and Transparency in NYS
   - Any other Moksha Related Hackfesting
   - If there is an OpenGov/Transparency BOF Session, I will attend it, if
 not, I will lead it and/or any other OpenGov sessions at FUDCon :)
   - Promoting POSSE RIT and FOSSCon 2011.

  * 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.
 My time restrictions are Jan 28th to Feb 1st, and I will take the cheapest
 flight out of Rochester NY we can find that leaves after 12pm Noon. I will
 take a flight back from PHX to ROC that leaves anytime after 6pm,
 including the Red-Eye flights.

  * Do you need a visa or other official processing before you can attend
 FUDCon? NO

  * Include any additional, relevant information.

 I'm really excited to tell the story of FOSS@RIT, and Fedora/Red Hat's
 empowerment of an academic center of gravity for FOSS in NY. We host our
 projects almost entirely on Fedorahosted.org, and many of our students
 were mentored this past year by folks like Luke Macken and Mel Chua, who
 will have lots of good things to say about what FOSS@RIT would bring to
 the table for FUDCon. I'm stoked, and I hope you all are too.

Comment:

 I asked jsmith to respond to this ticket, but since it's over, no need to
 do so at this point.
