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.
