As I see this, the way to solve the problem is NOT sending invitations. 
This is the Qt Contributors Summit: if you are maintainer you NEED to 
register and be there. If you are an approver you'd BETTER register and 
be there. If you need travel sponsorship you'd BETTER act fast. If these 
guys don't take their seats, others will.

Catering needs will be defined according to registered participants a 
week before the event (the usual margin).

Accommodation is something participants take care of themselves.

If someone forgets to register, book flights or hotel... Well, we are 
not their mum. What we will do is to create enough fuzz and interest to 
make it difficult to forget about the QtCS.

So the very practical questions still remain:

- How can people start applying for the event registration?
Can someone apply to a DevNet group QtCS 2012 pending approval by a 
moderator (e.g. me)?

- How can people manifest their travel sponsorship needs?
Sivan or whoever is interested: please create a wiki page under 
http://qt-project.org/wiki (yes, that one integrated with DevNet 
profiles etc).
