#354: Funding request for Chris Tyler -------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: ctyler | Owner: rbergero Type: Funding | Status: new request | Milestone: Paris 2012: Travel Subsidies Priority: normal | Requested Component: FUDCon | Keywords: Paris 2012 | Blocking: Blocked By: | -------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Please set the "Component" below to the correct event for your request. *** BACKGROUND: While I had not originally intended to be at FUDCon EMEA, I was invited to participate in a panel at the Open World Forum, which overlaps and is co-located with day 1 of FUDCon, and it probably makes sense to attend both events. My travel budget for the year was already allocated when this opportunity arose (rather suddenly), so I'm applying for funding for FUDCon accommodation. *** 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.) Hotel during FUDCon - EUR122/USD$150. * If we cannot provide a full subsidy, will a partial subsidy be helpful? (Yes/No?) Yes (probably!) * If Yes, specify the minimum amount you need covered to facilitate your attendance. Still awaiting word from other funding sources, so I'm not sure at this point. * What will you accomplish by being at FUDCon? (Please be as specific as possible, since this is the most important factor in granting requests.) There is growing interest in the Fedora ARM project in the EMEA region. As a participant in the Fedora ARM project (my research group operates the Fedora ARM koji buildsystem and is working on the RasPi remix) I would like to coordinate with these Fedora contributors. Specifically, I would like to have a test/hack session on the Raspberry Pi remix, and a discussion about EMEA-specific needs and interests in the Fedora ARM Secondary Architecture. * 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. Airfare (YYZ-CDG) should be covered by other funding. * Do you need a visa or other official processing before you can attend FUDCon? If so, approximately how long does that processing take? No, Canada is apparently on the visa waiver list for the Schengen Region. * Include any additional, relevant information. I will be representing the Fedora ARM project and talking about teaching Open Source at the OWF, Oct 11-13. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/354> fudcon-planning <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon> FUDCon event planning
