All,

According to the above link, you put your requirements on the Event
page, so I have updated the table on
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Ambassador_Day_North_America_2010
to include 'Travel costs excluding hotel' (I figure hotel costs can be
the same across the board and we can bunk up with another during the
event).

Please update if you have a good esitmate, but don't expect this to be
the reimbursement amount.  We're just gathering numbers at the moment.
 We'll get to how to pay for it soon.

Cheers,

Clint
