#45: Sponsorship/Funding for FAD EMEA BUDAPEST 2015 ---------------------+---------------------- Reporter: rgeri77 | Owner: decause Status: new | Priority: normal Component: General | Resolution: Keywords: | ---------------------+---------------------- Comment (by jwboyer): I'm slightly confused on a couple of items here. 1) Why wasn't this done at Flock this year, which is the primary conference for NA and EMEA? (I honestly don't know, so it is a simple question.) 2) I'm not sure spending Fedora budget on a social event for a FAD, which typically are limited and scoped in nature, is really appropriate. That might be something the regional ambassadors can pay for out of their allocation for the quarter. 3) Why was this presented to the Council with such short notice and with such a tight deadline? That would seem to reduce the odds of getting approval. 4) When Matt said "we might not be able to do" above, he was referring to paying up front. Normally OSAS requires purchase orders or regional credit card refunds per their accounting rules. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/council/ticket/45#comment:7> council <https://fedorahosted.org/council> Fedora Council Public Tickets _______________________________________________ council-discuss mailing list council-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/council-discuss The Fedora Project's mission is to lead the advancement of free and open source software and content as a collaborative community.
