Vinicius: I would really like to go, but at the moment I am worried about how much it would cost for me to go from Brazil to India. Kayak.com tells me it is a 27 hours flight with prices from about USD 1800. Considering that with this amount of money I can almost attend to two European events, I would rather prefer to meet you guys later in some closer venue. If travel cost is the only concern, please consider submitting an application for travel subsidy. http://live.gnome.org/Travel Remember that applications that do a good job of explaining the things you expect to do and get done at the hackfest tend to be taken most seriously. Having a good plan is a more important selection criteria than the cost of travel.

Same question goes for Documentation. The documentation team will have a hackfest a few weeks earlier in Toronto. There are two main reasons for having that hackfest instead of using GNOME.Asia. First, more of our team can attend. Second, any work we do in the last few days leading up to the release won't get translated. -- Shaun ___ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list

Sounds fun. - Andreas Hey thanks! Actually the initial plan was 5 days (plan from September), then after Gnome Bostom Summit we reduced to 3 days based on feedback from Jason and a few other people living in the US and for whom the whole trip would be a bit long. It turned out that the release team prefers 5 days so this is what we have finally chosen: 3 days + 2 optional days hackfest + 1 conference day. The first 2 days are actually the optional ones and happening in Intel office who committed for space for 20 people and the next 3 days are happening in the university (with as much space as we need) where the conference will happen as well. This way people attending 'only' 3 days can also take part in the conference and the little tour trip the following day all together. We thought that would be the best comprise fitting everyone's wishes. There is still one unknown parameter: an extra conference day. Considering we will have all those great people from marketing, release and maybe documentation (Documentation is having a hackfest in Toronto 1 week before), one day conference is very short. So based on sponsorship revenues and talks submitted we'll try to get an extra day. I hope this clarifies any misunderstanding. It is sometimes hard to go into all those details in public announcements. In anyone needs further clarification please do not hesitate to email us or drop by on #asia-summit . Thank you for all the support and we really hope to see some of you in Bangalore!
