The Apache Software Foundation (ASF)'s Travel Assistance Committee (TAC)
is now accepting applications for ApacheCon North America 2011, 7-11
November in Vancouver BC, Canada.
The TAC is seeking individuals from the Apache community at-large
--users, developers, educators, students, Committers, and Members-- who
would like to attend ApacheCon, but need some financial support in order
to be able to get there. There are limited places available, and all
applicants will be scored on their individual merit.
Financial assistance is available to cover flights/trains, accommodation
and entrance fees either in part or in full, depending on circumstances.
However, the support available for those attending only the BarCamp (7-8
November) is less than that for those attending the entire event
(Conference + BarCamp 7-11 November). The Travel Assistance Committee
aims to support all official ASF events, including cross-project
activities; as such, it may be prudent for those in Asia and Europe to
wait for an event geographically closer to them.
More information can be found at http://www.apache.org/travel/index.html
including a link to the online application and detailed instructions for
submitting.
Applications will close on 8 July 2011 at 22:00 BST (UTC/GMT +1).
We wish good luck to all those who will apply, and thank you in advance
for tweeting, blogging, and otherwise spreading the word.
Regards,
The Travel Assistance Committee
