I agree with Rick that supporting this tournament would be valuable not only
for those who can afford it but also for the pacific region.
And it seems like a decent enough tournament for people to work towards.
It would seem to me that supporting international tournament initiatives is
a very good direction for the upc international committee.

I don't see any need to discuss this over the wknd. Just put it out there
for comments on cost and desire to attend.
