Personally, as one that is 'incurring the costs' ... I'd rather see such
funding go towards better visibility at conferences and such ... even if
its not a CORE developer being flown in, there are costs involved such as
getting signage printed, and a decent booth setup ... an Advocacy fund
should be *exactly* that ... a fund to help cover the costs of advocacy
and promotion ...
