I'm curious how the proposed $255,000 for Wikimania travel for staff, board, advisory board and volunteers compares with what was actually spent this year? In the 2011-2012 plan, I see that $96,000 was proposed. While the travel costs for SF staff to DC are much less, I find this too low and hard to believe. Some more details and breakdown by scholarships vs. staff/board/advisory board would be nice. I'm curious if we are planning a higher number of scholarships for volunteers for next year? (as the overall WMF budget increases) and how many staff are we planning to send next year?
