-To be able to plan and budget for this we ask people who need
-travel support to tell us as early as possible. This is done so
-that we might take advance of cheaper flight prices and special
-offers you can find.

+Please ensure you specify:
 - the area you work on within Debian
 - the approximate travel costs, if booked well in advance
   (accomodation and food is taken care of)
-- how much of that costs are you able to pay yourself
-- your contact info (phone required)

-We, the DebConf6 organizers together with the DPL, will apply
-some common sense and fuzzy-logic filters and match the incoming
-requests against our vague idea of how the budget will look like
-and come back to you for further planning and information until
-February 17th 2006 (11 Weeks ahead of debcamp).

-We will try to handle this process in a semi-open way, since many
-are not compfortable about sharing travel dates and intentions
-publicly and might feel that their financial make up is a private
-issue. The "open" part about this will be that the decisions
-about sponsorship won't be drawn by lot or decided on arbitrarily
-but according to our general consensus.
