I saw a few positive responses to Alexandro's proposal already and
wanted to weigh in with my support as well. I think it's a fine idea
and the price-to-performance ration is sure to be good!
Central America is definitely a strategic area for our operation as
well, so let's go for it.

Hi I want to reuqest a $300 dls fund for Luis E Vasquez on his trip to
Nicaragua to attend the ECSL (Encuentro Centroamericano de Software
Libre). The event would take place in June and would be a week long
however he will just be able to attend 2 days. He will be taking off
from Medellin Colombia and would be giving a talk on Migrations to
OpenOffice.org. The event is the first in central america and has the
participation of crew from Guatemala, Salvador, Nicaragua, Panama and
Costa Rica (not sure if Honduras and Belize as well).
The event seems to have no presence from OpenOffice.org, having Luis
will bring more visibility to the project and also participation from
a "Gray Area (no volunteers)" in the collaboration within
LatinAmerica.
The event site is: http://encuentro.sl-centroamerica.org/
They have a wiki, identi.ca group and blog about the event and seems
the organization and attendance expectation is worthwile of our
presence.
Regards.
