FAQs - Domandis fatis dispès
- Trop costial partecipâ?
Flock to Fedora is free to attend, however attendees are asked to consider making a voluntary payment to allow us to increase our travel funding. The suggested payment is $25 (25 USD) scaled to your country using the Big Mac Index. When you click on the orange 'Get tickets' button in Eventbrite, you will find various ticket options. Information about which countries are suggested for which tickets is available by click on the ticket's 'Show Info' link.
- Why do you suggest we pay?
We encourage people to pay as it shows commitment to attending. We make many non-refundable commitments for items such as lunch and coffee breaks that are lost to us if you do not attend. There is a strong correlation between paying anything toward admission and actually showing up. The cost paid does not cover the costs associated with your attendance, even if you pay for your entire costs of travel and lodging.
- What if my country/region isn't listed?
Use the value that feels the closest to right for you. Consider regions with similar economic situations. Also consider your own situation and choose accordingly.
- O desideri paiâ une impuart diferent di ce che al è previodût pal gno paîs, ce aio di fâ?
Please choose the amount that makes the most sense for you. Flock to Fedora is free to attend, while we encourage you to consider making a voluntary payment.
- O desideri finanziâ il viaç di altris, puedio?
Yes! You choose a Supporter or Champion ticket to help offset the travel of those who cannot afford to attend. All travel funds are used to help Fedora Community members defray their travel costs. Travel funds are administered through the Flock travel funding program and may not be directed to a specific individual using this form.
- Cemût âstu calcolât chescj impuarts sugjerîts?
We used the raw data from the Big Mac Index for January 2023. Using the dollar valuation, the $25 US value was modified to reflect relative Purchase Price Parity. These values were then rounded to the nearest multiple of 5 to make the numbers less "ugly."
This is not a perfect method, but since the payment is voluntary it provides a reasonable starting point.
The specific method was to use a LibreOffice spreadsheet and open the data set. The value in the '
dollar_valuation' column (column I) was converted to a percentage and then multiplied by $25 before being rounded to the nearest $5. The formula is '=MROUND((25+25*I2/100),5)'. - Will this event be recorded?
We plan to both record and live-stream all presentations on Wednesday, 7 August and Thursday, 8 August. Workshops and hackfests on Friday and Saturday will not be recorded or live-streamed. Live-streaming will happen on the Fedora YouTube channel. Attendees to the event may be captured on video, audio, or photographic recordings
