This would be my first FUDCON, so I'm sure it will be an invaluable occasion to meet Fedora people, learn new things, and plan ahead for Fedora's growth. Additionally, I'm trying to bring there some memebers of the Italian translation team so we could do some translation sprint and/or recruiting. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/214> fudcon-planning <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon> FUDCon event planning

#296: Funding Request for Christoph Wickert -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: cwickert | Owner: rbergero Type: Funding request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: KL 2012: Travel Subsidy Component: FUDCon Kuala Lumpur | Requested 2012 | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- * What do you need covered? Flight: 550 EUR = USD 725[[BR]] Hotel: 184 MYR * 4 Nights / two people = 368 MYR = USD 120[[BR]] Total: USD 845 * 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 suggest either one, flight or accommodation. As hotel is relatively cheap, this is the absolute minimum. Around 50% would be cool, but frankly speaking I don#t expect full subsidy because I already got sponsored to Blacksburg and I intent do go to the other FUDCons this year, too. * What will you accomplish by being at FUDCon? It's not so much that I accomplish things but I want to enable others. I would like to meet with members of the Asian community. I think the Asian community - including their FAmSCo representatives - still can improve a lot. Another reason for me to go to a FUDCon in Asia is that there are a lot of talented C coders and I want to encourage them to participate in some projects I am trying to push, namely pure GTK+ applcations of stuff that used to be part of GNOME but has now been integrated into gnome-(s)hell. I am Things I have on my agenda: * Meet with the FAmSCo people and the leaders of the Asian community * Thinking about a process for sponsorship and reimbursements, common reporting guidelines for spendings etc. * Improve swag shipping. This still seems to be a serious problem in APAC and LATAM. * Talks: * GNOME 3 or why we need lightweight desktop environments - and what you can do to improve them. * Advanced RPM packaging (the most confusing specs of nearly 10 years package maintenance) * Fighting spam with postscreen * 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 look for flights and provide details once I get feedback about my funding request. The only restriction I have is that I need to leave directly after FUDCon. FUDCon ends on May 20, it will take me at least one day to get home and on May 22nd I need to start building up the Fedora booth at LinuxTag Berlin. LinuxTag opens doors on May 23rd and I am the event owner. * Do you need a visa or other official processing before you can attend FUDCon? No. EU citizens don't need one. * Include any additional, relevant information. I'm afraid it's too hot in KL to wear my beefy Miracle costume but I will bring it nevertheless. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/296> fudcon-planning <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon> FUDCon event planning
