#32: Funding request for Juan Rodriguez -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: nushio | Owner: jsmith, rbergero, rrix Type: Funding request | Status: new Priority: blocker | Milestone: Tempe 2011: Travel subisides complete Component: FUDCon Tempe 2011 | Keywords: -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Tell us the following:
* What do you need covered? Air + Hotel. ~350USD for Air ticket from McAllen, Texas to Phoenix, Arizona. I'll pay for the transportation from Phoenix to Tempe (And from Mexico to McAllen and viceversa). I'm willing to share a room for the Hotel. I'd like to be as cheap as possible to sponsor :) * If we cannot provide a full subsidy, will a partial subsidy be helpful? Yes * What will you accomplish by being at FUDCon? * 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. * Do you need a visa or other official processing before you can attend FUDCon? Nope. American Citizen. * Include any additional, relevant information.
There's a lot of reasons I'd like to go
* I'm working on a Web Events platform, called Timpus[1], and getting in touch with other ambassadors and marketers would help make this tool as useful as I possibly can make it. * Regarding Timpus, some sort of a Hackfest would be welcome. I expect to have an early demo of Timpus by the end of September btw. * I'm also interested in packaging tutorials/conferences, as I don't think I'm good enough a packager, though I manage 3-4 packages. * To meet fellow Fedora Developers, as I (As well as DanielBruno and Gomix) administer the ProyectoFedora.org infrastructure, and there's a lot of things I'd like to discuss with them. * Learn about organizing events, I'd like to do a FAD in Mexico.
