Tell us the following:
* What do you need covered? (Please estimate the costs in USD: hotel $X,
travel $Y.)
I would like to have my travel covered and a part of the hotel would be
nice.
* travel eDreams on 2012-10-29, from January 16th to January 22nd: ~US$900
* hotel the wiki pages says US$119/night, if the three nights from the
FUDCon could be consider that would be nice, so US$357
* total: US$1257
* 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.
I would appreciate to have the travel costs covered.
* 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 have been working with the infrastructure team for 18months now, but I
have not had the chance to meet most of them. This FUDCon would be an
occasion to do this for me.
In addition, we need to think as a group the way we want to do our web-
application development especially wrt framework and imho unit-tests.
I am also involved in setting up jenkins instances on our cloud but there
is much more we can do with it and I would be quite interesting to discuss
or even possibly work on this over there.
* 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.
I found these flights which looks interesting:
Wed, 16-Jan-13
11:00 Amsterdam (AMS)
16:28 Kansas City, MO (MKC)
Tue, 22-Jan-13
15:51 Kansas City, MO (MKC)
09:20 (+ 1) Amsterdam (AMS)
Both are with United Airlines
* Do you need a visa or other official processing before you can attend
FUDCon? If so, approximately how long does that processing take?
Yes and no, as a european citizen I have to apply at the Electronic System
for Travel Authorization (ESTA) for the said authorization to stay on US
ground.
* Include any additional, relevant information.
None that I foresee.

Please set the "Component" below to the correct event for your request.
*** BACKGROUND: While I had not originally intended to be at FUDCon EMEA,
I was invited to participate in a panel at the Open World Forum, which
overlaps and is co-located with day 1 of FUDCon, and it probably makes
sense to attend both events. My travel budget for the year was already
allocated when this opportunity arose (rather suddenly), so I'm applying
for funding for FUDCon accommodation. ***
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.)
Hotel during FUDCon - EUR122/USD$150.
* If we cannot provide a full subsidy, will a partial subsidy be helpful?
(Yes/No?)
Yes (probably!)
* If Yes, specify the minimum amount you need covered to facilitate your
attendance.
Still awaiting word from other funding sources, so I'm not sure at this
point.
* What will you accomplish by being at FUDCon? (Please be as specific as
possible, since this is the most important factor in granting requests.)
There is growing interest in the Fedora ARM project in the EMEA region. As
a participant in the Fedora ARM project (my research group operates the
Fedora ARM koji buildsystem and is working on the RasPi remix) I would
like to coordinate with these Fedora contributors.
Specifically, I would like to have a test/hack session on the Raspberry Pi
remix, and a discussion about EMEA-specific needs and interests in the
Fedora ARM Secondary Architecture.
* 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.
Airfare (YYZ-CDG) should be covered by other funding.
* Do you need a visa or other official processing before you can attend
FUDCon? If so, approximately how long does that processing take?
No, Canada is apparently on the visa waiver list for the Schengen Region.
* Include any additional, relevant information.
I will be representing the Fedora ARM project and talking about teaching
Open Source at the OWF, Oct 11-13.

I have a new topic-based authoring solution for Fedora Documentation. The
current Fedora Installation Guide is based on the RHEL 5 Guide that I
wrote in 2006, and is an early attempt to do modular, reusable authoring
(see attached presentation). Since then I've been working on a system that
supports division of large documentation tasks into small chunks of
modular, reusable text. Now we have it. Some videos are here:
http://vimeo.com/channels/289144
I want to present this system at FUDCON, and get some support to host it
in Fedora and start using it to write Fedora Documentation.
