Hi,
I would like to ask for funding to attend the SVG working group meeting in London (August 22-26) just prior to The Graphical Web (TGW) conference, formerly SVG Open, in Winchester, England (August 27-30). I would also like to ask for back-up funding to attend TGW (where I will be giving a talk) if the organizers are unable to completely fund my attendance (the have the past few years).
The estimated cost for attending just the SVG WG meeting is 600 dollars, this about 500 dollars for five nights in a university dorm room (London hotels are very expensive) plus 100 dollars for misc. expenses.
If the TGW organizer's are unable to completely cover my expenses (train to London/Winchester) there might also be travel expenses ($200), conference fees ($350), room charges ($300 for a dorm room) and $100 for misc. expenses. I expect that at least the conference fees will be waved.
