[darcs-users] sprint - should we reimburse accommodation?

[Eric Kow]

Hey darcs-users,

This came up when planning travel for the 2011-04 sprint, so I'd like
to discuss policy a bit.

We currently reimburse travel costs only, leaving accommodation to be
up to the individual.  What do you think about reimbursing accommodation
as well?  The usual principle of "be reasonable" would apply (so please
stay at a hostel).  This would reduce the cost efficiency of our
sprints, but it would also widen access to students and what not.

Anybody with experience in other projects care to comment?
If nobody objects, I think we should try and see what happens.

Thanks,

PS: To be transparent about this, I should say that I've recently
    switched to claiming back travel costs myself and would likely
    also claim hostel costs too.
