Hi all, Please be advised that the closing date to submit an application for travel assistance has been changed to September 16th. Please note that this date is before speaker notifications are announced. Therefore, if you are waiting to see if your talk is approved before applying for travel assistance, please don't, otherwise you'll miss the deadline to apply!! I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for understanding! If you have any questions, you may email me directly at e...@apache.org with a copy to travel-assista...@apache.org. Have a terrific Thursday! ~Melissaon behalf of the Travel Assistance Committee

The Travel Assistance Committee (TAC) are pleased to announce that travel assistance applications for ApacheCon EU 2016 are now open! We will be supporting ApacheCon EU, Seville, Spain, November 14th - 18th, 2016. TAC exists to help those that would like to attend ApacheCon events, but are unable to do so for financial reasons. For more info on this years applications and qualifying criteria, please visit the TAC website at < http://www.apache.org/travel/ >. Applications are already open, so don't delay! ApacheCon EU is split into two separate themed events - Apache Big Data and ApacheCon. Due to the small time frame of each event (3 days and 2 days), the Apache Travel Assistance Committee will only be accepting applications from those people that are able to attend BOTH events. Important: Applications close on Thursday, September 29, 2016. Applicants have until the closing date above to submit their applications (which should contain as much supporting material as required to efficiently and accurately process their request), this will enable TAC to announce successful awards shortly afterwards. As usual, TAC expects to deal with a range of applications from a diverse range of backgrounds. We therefore encourage (as always) anyone thinking about sending in an application to do so ASAP. We look forward to greeting many of you in Seville, Spain in November 2016. Kind Regards, Melissa, on behalf of the Travel Assistance Committee
