Thanks for your answer. I realize that this is indeed an expensive event. I wasn't expecting so many participants at first, as for the other editions we were about half that size (6 or 7). > Approved. > I'm assuming that a lot of the travel is reimbursed by SPI not by Debian > France? > 12,000 EUR would be a good chunk of the money they hold for us. > I'd definitely rather see the plane tickets for India and Brazil travel > come out of SPI.
