[IAEP] [SLOBS] [SLOB] email motion re Scratch Conference

[Samson Goddy]

Well, i don't know why you came up with these ideas,but everyone knows that
getting a visa is difficult in every country. Your team in OLPC france can
also attend the event, but i and ibiam are both special guests coming from
Africa. I suggest you a take a look at my proposal again.

Before i came up this proposal. I already made contact with the embassy, so
i know all the requirements to get a schengen (business) visa. I am also
pretty sure, if accidentally we don't get to France we will have to refund
the money to SL account.

Summary of my proposal.

Ibiam's flight to BDX and hotel bills, the team down in france will cover
this visa and visa processing fees.

Samson, i only need money for visa processing and my stay in lagos during
the time for visa processing.

Note: we are not going on our own, the team down in France are standing for
us.

BR

Samson
