Sorry for not replying earlier - I just found out GitLab was using an old email address that I don't check very often. I'll fix that.

I have processed the reimbursement. Jiri should have everything he needs to get his expenses paid. I am going to close this issue as complete, since the event report is provided.

Thank you Jiri for representing the Fedora community there in Prague! 🎉 Looking forward to the next one for the Fedora Czech community. :muscle_tone1:
