This is my idea. I heard a lot of people complaining only a small part of their flight was paid back, or others (smarter!) persons admitted they had to search for other sources of funding.

Like I stated on the form, all entries will be made anonymous before analysing and discussing (removal of username, changing city of departure into country of departure).

Casey, like you said, probably not everybody wants to discuss this on an open wiki. That's the reason I started the private questionnaire. You can trust me on this (just ask Lodewijk).

Hey,

On the Wikimania wiki we have some discussions on the best way to organize the "partial scholarships". We want to prevent that people from countries far away from the venue (Australia, Canada, thirld world countries, ...) stay home because the partial scholarship does not help them enough. We don't want them all to request a full scholarship, either.

Thanks for looking into these questions.  I'm very interested in feedback on how we might make the scholarships work better next time.

Cheers,
Katie

 

Please help us for the next conference, and fill in the questionnaire on https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dG1BaUJHZkpJS2puSHJuTGN0Sk9NcHc6MQ

Everybody can fill in this form (even if you didn't attend, or didn't find funding), so send this to everybody that wanted to come!

Grtz,
Maarten
