[Cidrz] [ict4dclass] finalizing outstanding deliverables

[Gari Clifford]

Hi Andres,

I think Jhonatan is referring to reimbursement for expenses already incurred
during the course.
He _may_ fund one of us, but I doubt that he'd fund all of us to Zambia
(he's still reeling from the last trip a student took to Africa and
presented him with the bill).

Did I understand wrong - aren't the CIDRZ paying for our trip this summer?
How will this be arranged? Will they pay for the flight and accommodation in
advance?

best

-Gari
PS I think Jhonatan may partially fund a UROP - we'd have to talk to him
about that ...
