#124: Funding request for Jesús Franco --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: tezcatl | Owner: aeperezt Type: Funding request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Panama 2011:Wiki Complete Component: FUDCon Panama 2011 | Keywords: --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Tell us the following:
* What do you need covered? (Please estimate the costs in USD: hotel $X, travel $Y)
According to wiki page: Hotel Villages $80 USD (i can share room), Air travel $700 (with possible discount if Taca is available).
* If we cannot provide a full subsidy, will a partial subsidy be helpful? (Yes/No)
No :(
* If Yes can you specify the minimum amount you would need covered to facilitate your attendance
* 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 want to promote the use of standard tools used by Fedora Documentation Project in order to: ** get more contributors to Documentation and Localization Project; ** support the effort steered by Guillermo Gómez to recruit more writers of formal documentation from Latin América; ** share the experience of learning on Docs Project, and how we can apply that to our local communities (i'm using Docbook/git & Projects management tools in a local outreach effort); ** engage more writers to Fedora Latam Magazine, with the fun of workflows learned in Documentation Project. * I have promoted an initiative to let Fedora contributors share knowledge between them and toward users of Fedora, based in the idea of Fedora Classroom, but with a more expanded experience through the use of Moodle. ATM, moodle.proyectofedora.org is a Moodle instance to support this idea, but no much advance has been done. I want to meet with another contributors interested in this subproject in order to advance the planning and vision of this initiative. }}}
* 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 have not done any queries about specific flights at this moment.
* Do you need a visa or other official processing before you can attend FUDCon? If so, approximately how long does that processing take?
Panamá doesn't requieres Visa for Mexican citizens.
* Include any additional, relevant information.
This would be my first FUDCon, if no funding is available, i'd like to support streaming or remote talks efforts.
