Hello Ambassadors,
Hope you all are doing well.
Glad to inform you all that my session titled "Beautiful Software Testing" is
selected under QE Track in DevConf.us. The conference is happening on 17th and 18th Aug
2018 in Boston.
I wish to attend the conference and I have partial budget approved already.
So wanted to check if the community will assist me.
Few supporting points to why you may consider to sponsor me:
1. Organizing Committee member of QECamp.cz
2. Organizing Committee member of DevConf.in
3. Organizing Committee member of DevConf.cz
4. Presented a talk in QECamp'17, Brno
5. QE Upstream Contributor in Fedora from last 2 years
6. Organizing Committee member of Fedora Pune monthly meetups
7. Flock is happening just the week before DevConf.us so that I can learn more happenings
in Fedora. And this will be my first Flock event to attend.
Expecting a positive reply from your side.
Please comment if any more info required from my side.
P.S - Let me know even if you can sponsor me with partial amount.
- Regards,
Suprith Gangawar

Did you speak on any topic related to Fedora or Fedora Sub Projects in any of the
above conferences/meetup?
5. QE Upstream Contributor in Fedora from last 2 years
Can you please let us in on a brief of what are your exact contributions in last 2 yrs?

Hey Suprith,
Congrats on getting your talk selected :)
---
-1 form my side
Reasons:
1. The trend of sponsoring people from APAC budget is not something I find right.
2. There are a ton of things we should do to make a presence in APAC important.. and I
find old "FADs" still more relevant to be funded.
3. The talk doesn't seem to be Fedora related.
I think we can utilize the budget and use it in a better way.
I am not a very old ambassador and might be wrong, but I don't think this is why we
get APAC budget

@sumantrom The amount I was looking for is 2500 USD. Since I already have 1000 USD
approved from my team, I am looking for 1500 USD more. Ambassadors can think of supporting
me with even partial of 1500 USD if not entire amount.

Hey @siddharthvipul1 Even I am in an agreement of utilizing the budget in a better way. In
fact, I can use it for my next Fedora meetup in Pune, as we plan to keep the meetup going
without irregularities.
Since, I am overwhelmed with my talk selection for the first time in some foreign open
source conference, so thought of asking if Fedora has something to offer.
The session is not entirely about Fedora, as obviously I am in Software Testing and the
session is on the same too. But in an open source conference, I think every Fedora
contributor does mention his experiences of working for Fedora.

Thank you all for the consideration in the first place. I have already withdrawn my
submission from the conference due to lack of Budget. This ticket can now be closed.
