Thanks, James, I went through the logs. I concur with the views put forward
by MrBIOS and Samson. I think conferences help. Not all of them. But, they
do matter. Conferences put Sugar Labs out there in front of the world,
leads to interesting discussions and new collaborations. As Walter also
mentioned,

Music Blocks in Japan is from a conference interaction


I think, this is important and we shoud be more encouraging in doing it. I
am the one who has been proposing and applying to conferences for about
most part this year. I have been informing on the list once the proposal is
accepted or finalised. I understand I should be informing whenever I apply
proactively. I will start doing that. PyCon US was a good initiative. I am
happy that active contributors and board members were there (I couldn't
make it) and represented Sugar Labs. Regarding funding, that I would leave
the SLOB to decide on case by case basis. It would really help out if
people can suggest other conferences as well and move forward in a planned
manner.

Looking forward to helping out in the preperations for FOSDEM!

Best,
Vipul Gupta
