 This is mostly a heads up that I would like to participate in FUDCon
 Blacksburg.   A quick check shows the a return trip from Mumbai + taxi
 from Pune to Mumbai and back to be around $1750.   I intend to present Ask
 Fedora and maybe run a hackfest as well if enough people show interest.
 Since Ask Fedora should already be in production launch and in good use,
 we will have our assorted set of feature requests and issues to fix.  I
 will update this ticket with more information as needed.

Comment (by rbergero):

 Rahul,

 Need to know the breakout of travel costs vs. hotel, if you're requesting
 hotel, etc.

 Also, if you could fill out the following section (cut/pasted from the
 template for when you submit a subsidy ticket) it would be helpful.

 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)
  * If we cannot provide a full subsidy, will a partial subsidy be helpful?
 (Yes/No)
    * If Yes, specify the minimum amount you 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.)
  * 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?  If so, approximately how long does that processing take?
  * Include any additional, relevant information.

 If we cannot provide a full subsidy, will a partial subsidy be helpful? No

 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 could present the following sessions

 Ask Fedora roadmap:  Community governance, features, bug fixes, design
 help and brainstorming

 FUDCon in APAC:  What we learned from FUDCon Pune

 Hackfest:  Askbot,  have invited the primary developer of Askbot as well,
 Evgeny Fadeev

 I have a valid US visa (B1/B2)

 Let me know if more info is required
