Re: [PLUG] aKademy 2008, The Philadelphia Konvention?

Last I checked, all you need to enter the US with is a foreign
passport. As long as you are not coming from North Korea, Iran, or
Libya - I don't see what the hassle is. The US is one of the easiest
countries to gain legal (and illegal) entrance to - try getting into
Australia or Brazil with nothing but a US passport and see how far
you get!
If the majority of KDE people are in Europe, the travel cost will
kill it - though if they did a US event - east coast will be prime
and philly would be ideal - cost wise.

I wouldn't be surprised if this is a deal killer. U.S. Visas are
currently
tough to get from some parts of the world for some ethnic groups
that tend to
be involved in the KDE community.
