 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)
 Hotel: about $90 (probably less if I share a room with someone), Travel:
 about $1,749 (I wish I could find something less expensive)
  * If we cannot provide a full subsidy, will a partial subsidy be helpful?
 (Yes/No)
 Yes.
    * If Yes, specify the minimum amount you need covered to facilitate
 your attendance.
 about $1,649
  * 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 help with the design workshop, and also mockup and implement new
 design for ask.fedoraproject.org.
  * 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.
 Departure: Ben Gurion International Airport, Tel Aviv, Israel.

 Arrival: Not sure yet. If I want to arrive at Roanoke I'll need to order a
 ticket from another airline in addition, the closest location I can get to
 without ordering tickets in two different airlines is Washington DC.

 Flight numbers: not sure yet.
  * Do you need a visa or other official processing before you can attend
 FUDCon?  If so, approximately how long does that processing take?
 Yes, visa and a passport, I'm not sure how long this is going to take.
  * Include any additional, relevant information.
 This is my last opportunity to attend a Fudcon in the next 3 years,
 because, from July, I'll be on 3 years mandatory military service for 3
 years, during this time I won't have much time to contribute to Fedora.
 Furthermore, I'm only 17 and I don't have a job, so I won't be able to
 attend without funding.

 Thanks.
