Im not a member of the Mindshare Committee to grant sponsorship, but also fwiw I am +1 to this request.

@jwflory @nbebout can you review this please? Not sure who else to tag that would have authorization to approve or not.

+1. Let's see if we can close in on this travel. Thanks for all your patience @Siosm.

The approval process has not been working smoothly for some time. This year has not been easy for community events. I hope to spend more time on improving this process later this year, after Flock but before the next FOSDEM.
