Speaking only for myself, the dollar value that TSP has provided has been fine, it's just been timeframe/administration that has made it difficult for me. And probably something to look at.
Just by way of explanation of what I mean...
thanks for telling it
I intended to attend oSC15, and started looking at airfare/hotels/etc starting in January, and found a pretty good fare for $x towards mid -February. And I applied for TSP in Late-Feb/Early-March. Unfortunately, responses weren't given by TSP until April, By that time, airfare costs for me had basically tripled. (I wasn't in a financial situation this year in order to absorb that extra cost myself, or purchase the lower priced airfare, back in February without being assured TSP would help out.)
I don't know how many other folks were in this situation, but international travel being what it is, I'd say looking at doing reviews/approvals earlier than a month before the event could certainly help.
+1 + dormitory decision (ok you are free but TSP will help you only for this amount ... for sure it was another "new" point in osc15) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
