It would be great to participate, and I am indeed looking forward to these events. But there's no chance I can ask for funding for participation in an international event already in March. I've seen this here before, so I kindly ask congress organizers to consider in the future a CFP in at least 6 months advance, so that people from other parts of the world can provide their necessary bureaucratic and funding arrangements.
