Request if this clash can be avoided. Would love to participate in both.
I have put in my comments on etherpad Sarah and i hope to make it to the
conference.

Working on raising travel sponsorship. If any of you know any organization
willing to pick up my travel tab, kindly personal message me at
psridharp at gmail.com.

Regards,
Sridhar Pabbisetty
