#206: Funding request for Robert Scheck

Reporter: robert | Owner: fcrippa

Priority: normal | Milestone:
Component: FUDCon Milan 2011 | Keywords:
-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
It would be very nice and helpful if with a partial subsidy my airfare
could be covered. Booking is already done (2011-09-30 to 2011-10-03,
leaving at 2011-10-02 makes the flight very expensive), here are my final
costs:
* Airfare (Lufthansa) is 133.67 EUR
* Accommodation (Perugino) is 222.00 EUR
I'm not sure if there was a request deadline and if so, I might be too
late due to my vacation. But as said before, booking is done, money is
spent.
If my airfare could be covered, it would be really awesome, but it won't
be the end of the world if not. Oh, I'm not really expecting my
accommodation to be covered, it's just for your overview.

Hi folks,
This has been set to be followed up in FUDCon Planning mailing list so

This is really interesting point. Could you explain more where are you
getting this fund and which stuffs are you planning to cover by it?

Yes, one of the most advantages to organize FUDCon in India is there are
many existing Fedora contributors here and we can save a lot of money to
sponsor others to travel to.

It is not cheap because we have to reserve more fund for more APAC
contributors there or it should be called "FUCon" (without or less
*D*evelopers).

+1 to kushal.
In the other hand, we also could not organize all upcoming FUDCons in
India, right?

There are a lot of interesting information discussed in the meeting.
Can anyone put them into the bids?
Also, please keep this going then we can make decision in the next
Saturday meeting.
