#224: Funding request for Rahul Sundaram ------------------------------------+--------------------------------------- Reporter: sundaram | Owner: jbwillia Type: Task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: FUDCon Blacksburg 2012 | Keywords: ------------------------------------+--------------------------------------- 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. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/224> fudcon-planning <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon> FUDCon event planning

#212: Funding request for Mohd Izhar Firdaus Ismail (FAS: Izhar) -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: izhar | Owner: sundaram Type: Funding request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: FUDCon India 2011 | Keywords: -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- * What do you need covered? (Please estimate the costs in USD: hotel $X, travel $Y) I'll need travel and accommodation to be covered. As of 11 Aug 2011, the flight rate from KL to Mumbai for 2nd November till 9th November is around USD440 (includes food+15kg luggage+sports equipment, but see below). As for accommodation, I'm ok with any places which I can sleep in sleeping bag :-) Sports equipment -> thinking of bringing along a folding bike, though wondering whether that'll be a good idea or not, else no. * 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. Yes, 400USD * What will you accomplish by being at FUDCon? (Please be as specific as possible, since this is the most important factor in granting requests.) - Interact with other APAC contributors and ambassadors I have known since the past several years but had not have the opportunity to meet them in real life, and hopefully, figure out more ideas on how to grow Fedora presence in APAC. - Experience a FUDCon with the general goal of organizing one in the future. - Thinking of giving a talk, but not quite sure what the topic yet as this will be my first FUDCon and not quite sure what to expect. Gave a number of talks in several local conferences before but they are mainly beginner stuff, or Python/Zope related - which I'm not sure whether its relevant for FUDCon. - Hacking on GNOME3 extensions and probably some rpms - I wrote the pidgin integration extension for gnome-shell, and maintains a number of packages. * 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 airline would be AirAsia (www.airasia.com) as thats the cheapest airline to go to India from Malaysia. Departure would be from Kuala Lumpur (KUL) and destination is Mumbai (BOM). Departure date would be either 1st Nov or 3rd Nov (not sure which is better), and return date would be 8th Nov. * Do you need a visa or other official processing before you can attend FUDCon? If so, approximately how long does that processing take? Yes, as per http://www.indiavisa.com.my/visa_fee.php, it'll cost me around 55USD (i think i'll cover this myself) and will take 2-3 days to process * Include any additional, relevant information. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/212> fudcon-planning <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon> FUDCon event planning

#206: Funding request for Robert Scheck -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: robert | Owner: fcrippa Type: Funding request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: FUDCon Milan 2011 | Keywords: -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- It would be very nice and helpful if with a partial subsidy my airfare could be covered. Booking is already done (2011-09-30 to 2011-10-03, leaving at 2011-10-02 makes the flight very expensive), here are my final costs: * Airfare (Lufthansa) is 133.67 EUR * Accommodation (Perugino) is 222.00 EUR I'm not sure if there was a request deadline and if so, I might be too late due to my vacation. But as said before, booking is done, money is spent. If my airfare could be covered, it would be really awesome, but it won't be the end of the world if not. Oh, I'm not really expecting my accommodation to be covered, it's just for your overview. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/206> fudcon-planning <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon> FUDCon event planning
