Travel info
Pune is the second largest city in the Indian state of Maharashtra and is located about 75 miles from Mumbai.
Pune has an airport; however international travellers, especially from US and Europe, might consider flying in to Mumbai and getting a flight/taxi from Mumbai to Pune for a more economical plan. Flight takes about an hour and taxi takes about 3 to 4 hours. Getting a taxi is naturally cheaper and we can arrange taxi locally. The cost for a taxi should be less than $100. Sharing a taxi will be preferred for people coming in around similar times, bringing down that cost.

Budget Details
Detailed budget estimates: Current total estimate: USD 15707
FUDCon APAC has been provided a tentative budget of 15000 US Dollars as per
http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/fudcon-planning/2011-May/002350.html
Rahul Sundaram will talk to teams within Red Hat and others on complimenting the budget but for the bidding process, our planning must be limited within this amount. Note that if a Red Hat person comes from some other country, his or her manager will generally fund that travel and that's what we will encourage. Max Spevack has additional discretionary budget in special cases. Community volunteers need funds to be taken out of the FUDCon allotted budget typically.
