::::Thank you for these clear answers, [[User:Violetova|Zana]]! One last question. Can you tell me more about why you want to fly Bojana in from Sarejevo as a guest speaker? We appreciate your frugal travel budgeting, but at EUR 310, her participation is a significant portion of your overall expenses. Therefore, it would be useful to better understand the value of her contributions to the event before making a final decision. Thank you, [[User:Wolliff (WMF)|Winifred Olliff (WMF Program Officer)]] [[User_talk:Wolliff (WMF)|talk]] 00:12, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
::::::Hi [[User:Wolliff (WMF)|Winifred]], here is our way of thinking about the guest speaker: why we need one, and why we choose Bojana:
::::::We thought that if we have a guest speaker from abroad, the conference will obtain more significance. Bojana's theme is: "Wikipedia and education aims". She knows the theme, she spoke about Wikipedia and education aims many times in her country. There are other Wikipedians from neighborhood countries who know the theme also, but we choose Bojana, because of the language issue: we will not need translator for Serbian language, in contrast to English speaker. We are aware that guest speaker's expenses are significant part in the budget, that's why we keep it frugal. -[[User:Violetova|Violetova]] ([[User talk:Violetova|talk]]) 10:16, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
