You should not see yourself as evil and not worth using foundation budget
just because you work for a private enterprise!
After all - it's corporations like yours and mine which fund OpenStack.
If for any reason your employer can' authorise your travel, and - obviously
- if you want to come, you should probably do as Anita suggests.

As we are working to get somebody from QA & Infra at the meetup, we will
probably have a "working table" dedicated to testing.

We're not meeting to argue or have fights. There's already a summit every 6
months for that! This meeting is about finalizing designs into low level
aspects and then getting our hands dirty on the keyboard.

Fortunately there are no easyjets or ryanairs for intercontinental flights.
You can buy reasonably priced tickets up to 2 weeks before departure. Idk
where you are precisely but flights from London, Rome, and Munich to Salt
Lake City are around 850 euros at the moment.
