#173: Funding request for Eugene Teo ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Reporter: eteo | Owner: Type: Funding request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: FUDCon APAC 2011 | Keywords: FUDCon India 2011 ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Hi, I was advised to file a ticket for my funding ticket. I am unable to find the "FUDCon India 2011" component, so I picked the closest option I can find. * What do you need covered? (Please estimate the costs in USD: hotel $X, travel $Y) Air travel: ~USD$700 from Singapore to Mumbai (two way). Other travel: from Mumbai to Pune, and back, not sure yet. Hotel/lodging: Still finding, not sure yet Will need help from the organisers. * If we cannot provide a full subsidy, will a partial subsidy be helpful? (Yes/No) No. * What will you accomplish by being at FUDCon? (Please be as specific as possible, since this is the most important factor in granting requests.) 1) I would like to give two presentations. a) On open source security:- How the Red Hat Security Response Team deals with security issues affecting Fedora and upstream open source projects. Fedora users will have a better awareness and appreciation of how we deal security issues in the upstream, and learn how they can source for information they need to ensure they have installed updated packages that addressed security issues. b) on SystemTap:- Explain what SystemTap is, given an overview of SystemTap and the scripting language, provide a technology update, and showcase interesting kernel/user-space scripts. 2) Talk to people at FUDCon, find out how we can improve our involvement in the Fedora security team, gather feedback for the perftools team, etc. 3) Attend the FUDCon, interact with contributors and colleagues in Pune I have worked with for the past 5+ years but had not have the opportunity to meet them in real life. 4) Meet my ex-Fedora GSoC mentee. I supervised a GSoC project under the Fedora Project organisation. She works for us now, but I haven't had the chance to meet her in real life, too :) * Do you need a visa or other official processing before you can attend FUDCon? If so, approximately how long does that processing take? Yes. According to this website, http://www.india-visa.com/singapore- info.htm#visa-fees, it's about USD$17 for a transit visa (Upto 15 days single/double entry). The High Commission requires one working day to process my VISA application. * Include any additional, relevant information. I need to return on Nov 5th night or Nov 6th morning. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/173> fudcon-planning <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon> FUDCon event planning

#202: Funding request for Robert Scheck -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: robert | Owner: sundaram Type: Funding request | Status: new Priority: blocker | Milestone: Component: FUDCon India 2011 | Keywords: -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- I think it would be a great experience to participate this event and I would be very pleased about your help. * From a quick look, I don't know if Joerg's estimation of about 1000 USD sponsoring/funding still is up-to-date. * A flight with a trustworthy airline to Mumbai (and retoure) is around 850 EUR (~ 1225 USD) at the moment; price might increase if we get closer. * A direct flight to Pune is unrealistic as it is from +250 EUR up to +650 EUR on top to the flight costs to Mumbai - and even causes limitations due to less frequent flights. * I have no idea about the hotel room/accommodation costs, but Joerg should have experiences here. * Joerg and I could also share a hotel room, if that helps somehow (and if Joerg still can sleep if I snore). * I have proposed one talk so far, but I'm thinking about adding another one. I'm also open for suggestions given that I'm active at packaging, ambassadors and mentoring. * It would be really a pleasure to me if I can share my experience of the previously mentioned projects and teams with other Fedora contributors. * I need to get passport, which should take up to 4-6 weeks according to the website. * I also need to get a visa, that should take up to 1-2 weeks according to the website. * Did I forget something? Hopefully not, but if so, please let me know and just ask... I would be helpful to get a soon reply, similar like at Joerg, because I have to deal with my employer regarding vacation, flights won't get cheaper if we wait longer and passport/visa also need time till they're done. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/202> fudcon-planning <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon> FUDCon event planning
