Recalling what happened to the last planned Calligra Sprint as part of the
Randa meetings, our expenses were a lot because of lots of travel to
Europe. This was mostly because of the large number of Indian contributors
to Calligra. I remember someone throwing an idea (was during Akademy most
probably) that in such cases where travel funding is an issue, we can have
the sprint in Germany and India at the same time and connect using video
conferencing. While it certainly won't be as fun as a face to face meet,
its still better than nothing.

What do you guys think?
