Yes, we used these amounts in 2016, it should be same for this year.
We will discuss more about it with local team. If any change, we will
let you know.

For co-host with OpenSUSE, we call for sponsor separately. We just
share the cost such as venue, and if the speakers are from GNOME and
OpenSUSE, we could share travel cost. If we have income from donation
tickets, we also share it, as we did same in Beijing, :)

Thanks for your time!
