Because Japan is located in the far east, it is expected for some people
to cost a lot to travel from/to and stay in Japan. The IVOA executive committee
discussed possible financial support for those people who face financial
problems to travel to Japan.
However the IVOA exec could not figure out how many people need such support. Thus we would like the potential attendee to the Kyoto meeting to send request for financial support to the chair (al@roe.ac.uk) and the deputy chair (masatoshi.ohishi@nao.ac.jp) of the IVOA before March 18.
After we summarize the requests, we will determine how much support we will be able to provide those people. We will try to return the results to the applicants by March 31.
Please note that budget for the support is quite limited.
