Re: Travel Subsidy Policy

[Mario Behling <mb mariobehling de>]

Hi, very good text. I am only concerned that we make it a bit
complicated. I think people can state if they need travel subsidy in
the speaker form and just submit one thing. If we dont want to choose
this way, we can decide among the GNOME.Asia committee. Otherwise it
could make things more complicated. We can still ask the GNOME Travel
committee if we are not sure about a decision.
