Could FSFE consider covering travel expenses for me, if I was to go on a small "road trip" in Southern Finland, visiting several local Linux/Unix user groups and telling them about FSFE?
I'd estimate that the expense is around 50-100 euros per visited LUG. If I can manage to recruit at least one fully contributing fellow from each LUG, it would cover the expense.
I think this is a very good initiative! Thank you for proposing it and being prepared to do it.
This is something we should support. Please check with Matthias, since he's the Fellowship coordinator and will have to approve the budget.
Please use the Fellowship infrastructure to announce the events to Fellows and publish event entries etc, in order go generate maximum impact.
Please also send a report about each meeting to team-reports@. Not only can we then keep track of what happens, but we'll also learn more about what works and what doesn't.
Would other country coordinators be interested in doing something similar?
Best regards, Karsten
