#589: Funding request for Izhar for FUDCon Pune -------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: izhar | Owner: siddhesh Type: Funding | Status: new request | Milestone: FUDCon Pune 2015: Travel subsidies Priority: normal | decided Component: FUDCon | Keywords: Pune 2015 | Blocking: Blocked By: | -------------------------+------------------------------------------------- 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.)
||= Travel =|| USD600 (Flight from KUL-Pune with 1 stop) || ||= Hotel =|| 1 bed || ||= Visa =|| self-coverage ||
* 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.
USD500 and a couch to sleep
* What will you accomplish by being at FUDCon? (Please be as specific as possible, since this is the most important factor in granting requests.)
Will be giving a talk titled "Selling" Open Source 101, which will be covering business models, processes, and structure on how to start your own Open Source business.
As a cardholder I can also help with expenses if needed.
* 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.
TBC .. currently Orbitz gives one suggestion to take KUL-Delhi-Pune, but if KUL-Mumbai and going to Pune with taxi is cheaper, then i'll take that.
* Do you need a visa or other official processing before you can attend FUDCon? If so, approximately how long does that processing take?
Yes, 2 weeks iirc
* Include any additional, relevant information.
I'm a cardholder, should be able to buy the ticket myself .. or is there a specific designated cardholder for this event?
will need to know who should I report the expenses to, considering FUDCon budget is separate from APAC budget.

Replying to [ticket:589 izhar]:
||= Travel =|| USD600 (Flight from KUL-Pune with 1 stop) ||
The cheapest ticket for KUL-Mumbai I can find is $326 and there are multiple options well below $500. That is what we'll consider since we'll arrange a cab to pick you up from Mumbai.
I'm a cardholder, should be able to buy the ticket myself .. or is there
a specific designated cardholder for this event?
Nah, Ruth mentioned that she was OK with using your card too. We will discuss travel tickets (including yours) in our meeting on 5th May at 09:30 UTC.
