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. Please note that for FUDCon Paris, hotel costs per person (in a shared room) are EUR122, or approximately $150 USD.)
As mentioned on the wiki, accommodation costs is 81€ per night that amounts to a total of 298$ for the 3 nights. The airplane tickets cost is 273$ (at the time). That makes a total of 571$ (or 422$ if I have a roommate).
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 need at least 422$ and I can find a roommate in order to cover the rest accommodation expenses.
What will you accomplish by being at FUDCon? (Please be as specific as possible, since this is the most important factor in granting requests.)
Besides meeting again with all the people in the community and exchange ideas about the project, I also have great interest on participating on technical presentations and workshops in order to gain more experience on Fedora internals and packaging in particular. I'm a Fedora Packager and Ambassador.

Do you need a visa or other official processing before you can attend FUDCon? If so, approximately how long does that processing take?
No.
At the tonight meeting we agreed funding transportation + hotel up to $422 Please find a roommate and book the hotel SOON (no guarantee that there would be a room left since Sept)
I guess I go ahead and book the flight as well?
I can book your flight. I need the following info:
Full Name Date of Birth Email address you want ticket setn to Aisle/Window preference
Feel free to send it to me in a direct email (robyn.bergeron at gmail.com)
I've sent you the details on email
I just booked the hotel. Is everything ok with the flight? I haven't receive any booking details yet.
Thanks
Ah, I just saw your email. I'll book it now.
Okay, it's booked and you shoudl be getting a confirmation in your email. (If they give you a receipt, please send me a copy since the copy I got doesn't actually ahve my name or credit card number on it!)
Total was $283 - it's close enough to what was approved IMO (within $10). Let me know if you don't receive anything, or if the details on the ticket are incorrect.
Thanks! I just receive the electronic ticket. It doesn't include any credit card information. If they send me a seperate receipt I'll forward it to your email. Thanks again.
Hi Nikos, it's ok for your flight, but from what I read we still have to pay the hotel for you. Could you please send to my by email (shaiton@fpo and fudcon-emea@fpo) your reservation number, the associated name (yours?) and your roommate if you have one? You should have one normally as we should give subsidies for only shared rooms. If not, tell us and try to find a roommate please ;)
Robyn will pay the hotel once arrived.
Cheers,
Note, for the roommate, #337 could be helpful.
Hi Kévin,
My reservation number is: G75-1OXU
The plan is that my roommate will be Christos Bacharakis, but he still waits to see if his part of the room cost will be covered. See #341
Agreed for his subsidies. Thanks, and sorry for answering this late.
See ya in Paris!
Great thanks :-)
See you in Paris!
