 Please set the "Component" below to the correct event for your request.

 Tell us the following:

 * What do you need covered? (Please estimate the costs in USD: hotel $X,
 travel $Y.)
 approx. costs: Cabfare(~50$) , Airfare (~60$), Hotel stay(No idea~70$)

 Total < 200$

 Estimates:

 Coming to conference

 Cabfare to Bangalore airport = 800 INR[ about 45 kms + toll :( ]

 Airfare - Bangalore to Pune = 1500-2000 INR

 Cabfare from Pune airport to hotel = (No idea)

 Going back home

 Cabfare Hotel to Pune airport (No idea)

 Airfare - Pune to Bangalore = 1500-2000 INR

 Cabfare Bangalore to home = 800 INR

 Hotel stay at Pune 26-28 (No idea, maybe 4000-5000 INR)

 * If we cannot provide a full subsidy, will a partial subsidy be helpful?
 (Yes/No?)
 No


 * If Yes, specify the minimum amount you need covered to facilitate your
 attendance.
 NA

 * 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 primarily contribute to gnome-games, I'm looking to understand more
 projects and expand my scope of contributions from games to at least one
 core module.
 I am primarily interested in infrastructure, feature development
 talks/sessions.


 * 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.
 The cheapest I found are these:

 AirAsia I5-1424 Bangalore-Pune - Fri, 26 Jun`15

 AirAsia I5-1425 Pune-Bangalore - Sun, 28 Jun`15

 Total cost for these two flights right now is 3100 INR.

 Airports = Bangalore, Pune

 Any departure/arrival time are okay. No specific time restrictions.

 * Do you need a visa or other official processing before you can attend
 FUDCon? If so, approximately how long does that processing take?
 No

 * Include any additional, relevant information.

 I am a gnome-foundation member[1] and contribute to gnome-games.
 Right now I am also working on adding a new gnome infrastructure tool[4]
 to check gnome guidelines which would work as a wrapper on top of git.

Comment (by pjp):

 Hello Sahil,

 We regret to inform you that your request for the travel + accommodation
 subsidy has been declined.[1] We would not be able to help you this time.
 Hope it works out better next time.

 Thank you.
