 Please set the "Component[[BR]]
 " 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.  Please note that for FUDCon Paris, hotel costs per person (in
 a shared room) are EUR122, or approximately $150 USD.)
 Maybe my flight (around 205USD)?[[BR]]
 12/10, 07:10 FR3093  PFO-PSA 31USD[[BR]]
 12/10, 15:40 EZY4214 PSA-ORY 62USD[[BR]]
 15/10, 13:00 EZY3815 ORY-KRK 63USD[[BR]]
 15/10: 18:50 FR5087  KRK-PFO 49.5USD[[BR]]
 Alternative return trip, which might cause some problems with my
 university exams schedule and it is risky (total trip cost 148USD):[[BR]]
 16/10, 08:30 FR4232  BVA-BGY 27USD[[BR]]
 16/10, 19:10 FR5289  BGY-PFO 27USD[[BR]]
 These seem to be the best options but I am open to new proposals.
 Also, a subsidy for my stay at the hotel would be a great help, but I
 understand it cannot be given to everybody.

 * 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.
 My fligh's cost, so around 205USD.

 * What will you accomplish by being at FUDCon? (Please be as specific as
 possible, since this is the most important factor in granting requests.)
 Of course it is about meeting old and new friends, having fun discussing
 about fedora's inside gossips and nevertheless getting to know some of the
 great contributors that put together everything to deliver what we get to
 love while testing it. I would like to get involved more in the
 "production" teams and it will be a great boost to meet some mentors
 there.
 But most important, I would like to meet people who are interested in
 Raspberry Pi and fedora's remix. I've been using it for some time and,
 although it is a very well prepared solution for powering RPi, there are
 still things to be done to help users take the most out of this low-spec
 pc.

 * 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.
 Already stated before as they change the subsidy's amount.

 * 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.
 Some of the low-cost airlines above charge extra checked-in luggage and
 travel insurances. Please book the flights without them. Thank you.
