It's not just about software contributions, we'd also like to arrange some Community chats, interaction, etc. from the big hitters in the Community (and others).

Valid point, Mr. General! - and I wasn't saying that something should/should not be allowed. I was just spotting a trend.

Personally, I'd have to wear karma like that like a badge of pride.

It's amazing how many humble people we have here on ITT!
I would love to come, but have no money, and don't consider myself having contributed enough to the community (I have a couple plans for the future, but they're all still eggs). Moreover, people that I've seen here that have REALLY done ALLOT.... and they are saying that they don't deserve to go! If the people who have posted above me don't, then who does?
Personally, I'll take a chance and see if I can design a nice logo for maemo, if not, well there's always next year. (and I'm sure I won't be missed lol)

That -108 karma is hilarious! I want to go out now and give "thumbs down" to all of Thoughtfix's posts, just so it can be even more absurd!
EDIT: There's something weird in general with thoughtfix's profile.... -123 blogs?!

But nobody would think they were worthy to enter the competition.

Seriously, I really doubt I deserve a sponsorship, but if I could get a ticket in and maybe a pointer to a hotel room, I'd probably come for a laugh. It's merely a matter of hopping in a train and bringing enough reading stuff for the trip.
Just don't expect any amazing software contributions from me.

I do love explaining cryptic sigs, but for the impatient: http://www.openpandora.org/
