----------------------------------+-------------------
* What do you need covered? (Please estimate the costs in USD: hotel $X,
travel $Y.)
I need to get partially covered my flight, which is about 850$, while I
will pay by myself for the accomodation (4 nights) and the other transport
costs.
* 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.
It would appreciated for me getting at least 450$ for the flight, I'll pay
all the rest, hotel included (will stay near BUAA).
* What will you accomplish by being at FUDCon? (Please be as specific as
possible, since this is the most important factor in granting requests.)
If still possible I'd like to give a talk about our websites: "Fedora
Websites: actual workflow and how fedora.next will change
fedoraproject.org". This can also be done as lightning talk or working
session.
* 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 don't have the flight numbers yet, but I will arrive at Beijing friday
22th in the very early morning and will depart monday 26th. I'll book the
flight by myself, no worries.
* Do you need a visa or other official processing before you can attend
FUDCon? If so, approximately how long does that processing take?
Yes I need a visa, I will request it tomorrow and already asked for an
invitation letter filling out the web-form, to get it more smoothly. I
should have enough time to get it before departure, it's about 4 or 5 days
here.

* What do you need covered? (Please estimate the costs in USD: hotel $X,

flight is 900 USD but, gnome will pay half, so I am asking for 450 USD
from Fedora. 3 nights conference hotel (240 USD). (Also, I'll get funding
for the flight from the Linux Foundation too, since I will visit Japan
prior to FUDCON, but I don't know the details yet, hence I am asking for
450 USD for the flight for now.
* If we cannot provide a full subsidy, will a partial subsidy be helpful?
(Yes/No?)
yeah.
* If Yes, specify the minimum amount you need covered to facilitate your
attendance.
A third of the 900 USD would be great for the flight.
* What will you accomplish by being at FUDCon? (Please be as specific as
possible, since this is the most important factor in granting requests.)
I am one of the creators of systemd which is one of the most core
components of Fedora. At this conference I would like to talk about that
and collect feedback in order to make sure that we deliver what people
want, and that the Fedora community can drive where things go.
* 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.
It's difficult at this point, given I lack the details for the funding for
Japan yet.
* Do you need a visa or other official processing before you can attend
FUDCon? If so, approximately how long does that processing take?
Yes, I need a visa for china, which should take a month to acquire,
according to the consular web site.
* Include any additional, relevant information.
