Hello Alexandro,
This event is one where developers will be all over the place and would be great oportunity to recruit and have a display. Unfortunately this trip won't allow me to cover the expense of a boot. But I will be able to bring some brochures and CDs. But also walk around to other boots and recruit on the spot. Unfortunately I wont give a talk since the CFP was over on the 24th of last month but I will still be able to participate on the un-conference and drive a BOF on ODF/OOo and other of the projects I am involved like Education, BizDev and Certification.
I'm not hesitant (as some are) because of the amount of money or the long trip from Mexico, but because I need some more information what you plan to do at the event. Normally, we only fund event attendance if we either have a booth/demo point, or a talk.
Is it correct that at the moment you can only say that you will be there and try to do some "networking"? Are there any chances of getting a talk/BoF/lightning talk or get some demo point to exhibit at? That surely would help the funding request...
