We wrote the DC bid for 2012 in the space of about a month and a half at the
beginning of this year. You don't actually need everything 100% in place for
the bid, you just need a good proposal and if you have a team of volunteers
that want to take this upon themselves, dedicating time to it, it is not
going to take anywhere close to 6 months to write the bid.
