[maemo-community] Maemo Summit 2009: US return flights for sponsored attendees

[From: Aniello Del Sorbo]

We aren't asking for that.
You explicitly said there need to be a good reason.
That's quite generic and we only wanted to make it clear that commons
sense works here.

I've personally been in cases where this didn't work and I lost money
(and it was only 8 Euros)

Thanks.
Aniello
