Through the end of 2019, LWN received some travel sponsorship from the LF that enabled us to get to events and was much appreciated. For some strange reason we stopped travelling in 2020 and that sponsorship ended; we have received no funds from the LF since that time. So the claim in the above comment is not really true.

We might see if they are willing to renew the travel money at some point, but we have not even asked that question. The steady stream of "I got COVID" reports coming in from the events of the last two weeks has not increased our urgency on that point.
