In fact we didn't have to think much to approve the sponsorship request from a guy like you.

What I'm actually surprised is about the lack of sponsorship requests coming from the rest of core contributors. Specially those flying from outside Europe should register asap so we can book flights earlier.

LATER MEANS MORE EXPENSIVE MEANS LESS BUDGET FOR INVITING MORE CONTRIBUTORS

Thank you for your understanding. Please hurry up!

WOW, not really sure how I missed this thread??

I want to come, I would need to go get a passport within the next two days, before I leave on vacation. because its gonna take two months to get it. It would be really cool to come meet so many names

I just dont think its in my cards this year. Hey Quim, Hawaii would be a nice middle ground for next years summit

Safe flights everyone, I look forward to the movie

In Spain you can get a passport in 2 days, literally. I have no clue how this works in the US though. I guess US citizens don't need to get any visa in advance and they can get it just at the airport, like EU citizens do (when the White House is not paranoid about something out there).

Its crazy, now I am supposed to have a passport to travel to Canada, you used to only need a drivers licence. It looks like they are only running about 4 weeks out at the moment.

I'm still just not sure I could make it. Its very very cool you are doing this though. I am really going to try to plan for next year. Quim will this be an annual event, can we expect Maemo Summit 2009? Is it possible to get 6 months advanced notice of dates/location for next year?

And as for the passport to Canada business, that's not our fault. You guys are the ones who started requiring the passport!

Oh I am not blaming Canada, if Canada were only south of the US, I would have defected long ago

I am in Michigan though, so I need someplace warmer, NOT colder

Ask this question right after a successful Maemo Summit 2008.

Come live in Vancouver. We're warmer than Michigan. At least in the winter. In the summer, we're cooler.

Well, we think we're cooler than most all year round. Dare you to find a corner without a Starbucks.
