Samson,

Flying Emirates Airlines with a 4 hour layover in Dubai on your way to the
US to save Sugar Labs $500+ will not block your entry into the US.  Sugar
Labs should not even suggest that we would block participants from the
Middle East, even in passing, or as a joke that spending 4 hours in Dubai's
airport will turn you into a terrorist is highly inappropriate.

Please if you want to go on this trip to the GSoC Mentoring Summit,
strongly consider that your options are likely running out very fast, and
you can instantly put an end to the operatic drama by working with the
SFConservancy today (now, immediately) to buy this flight and be done with
it all:

$1,277.68 @ Emirates.com for https://goo.gl/flights/5WpL Lagos - San
Francisco Oct 12/13; Boston - Lagos Oct 21/22
$190 Los Angeles - Boston Oct 15/16
$121.20 Port Harcout - Lagos Oct 12 & 24 (or earlier)

*You are fortunate that you do not need additional motions or votes as this
essentially matches lowest pricing for the approved Nigeria-to-GSoC without
side trips (2017-17).  Do consider what's in the best interest of the wider
Sugar Labs community and not just yourself.  Thank You All for supporting
Samson if he hopefully works this out.*

Agreed. I don't want to argue anymore because of timing. But i still think
is uncool. Could you inform SFC about the changes. Flying to America by
12th coming back 22nd.

I am going to work with them but need you to push the changes.
