Thanks very much to all of you who want to donate money to make it possible
for me to go to the conference :-)
I have taken a quick look, the flight is currently about USD 1000, I would
need to stay 5 nights in San Diego (to stay over the weekend), because
otherwise the flight would 3 times that price. My internet connection to US
is currently very bad (lots of packet loss), so I wasn't able to check for
hotel prices, but I guess it will be not to cheap. The cheapest room in the
conference hotel is USD 185, I guess it would be possible to find something
cheaper in town, but I have been told that on friday the Gay Pride Week
starts and that the hotel prices will be therefor much higher than normal
:-(.
So for covering the flight and hotel we would need USD 1500-2000. If you
think if we could collect something in this range, I would able to pay the
rest (eating, transportation etc.).
Just to give you an impression about the relation: Things like eating,
transportation, hotel etc. are about as twice as expensive in the US then in
germany.
Thanks again very much
Gerald
P.S. What's paypal account? (sorry my non computer english is very bad
