Update as of today:

I managed to get more donors:
    * Stefan Sylla, sylla-consult, Frankfurt, Germany - 100 Euro
    * R3 GIS, Merano, Italy - 500 euro
    * FOSSGIS.de - 500 euro

For sure even more donations are welcome to support partial
travel grants. Time is running of course... Maybe some more
companies could be approached.

... the page has been updated. Will add FOSSGIS.de as soon
as the money arrives.

cheers,
