We'll talk with the organizer and see if he has any contact with the French
government, aside that we know there is no guarantee that it will be
granted neither is there any that it'll not be granted.

We'll talk with the organizer and see if he has any contact with the French
government.

This was in an email i received from the Scratch2017bdx committee

*HAL*
If your proposal has an accompanying paper or poster that you wish to add
to the academic archives, our partner INRIA can publish it in a
Scratch2017BDX section at HAL. HAL is an open archive where authors can
deposit scholarly documents from all academic fields. For this, please fill
out the form at scratch2017bdx.org/en/hal

If that helps.

They want to share the responsibility with Sugar Labs, they already have a
budget for the event but every money is virtual at the moment, they are
working it out. So they'd love to pay half of the bill that's an estimated
1500euros($1681.12), but working the figures out the bill goes past that.
