Hi Debianites
I don't think this needs to be a GR per sé, but I'd like to hear the
views of others on this, and I hope that we can garner enough consensus
so that we can just go ahead and implement this in our future bursary
policies.
I belive Debian should help with visa costs.
And I would like to suggest Debian (or TOs) contracts a travel agency to
help those people can't pay for international tickets in advance, and
wait until after DebConf to get the reimbursement.
I know always there is the possibility someone ask for fly tickets, get
it from the travel agency and for some reason have to gave up to travel.
But for those, I belive an agency spending more than 60k in flight
tickets will have more power to negotiate the reimbursement (or
re-schedule) from flight companies than each of us.
It's not easy to everybody spend more than USD 1k or 2k to join a
DebConf and wait months to get the reimbursement.
Best regards,
