Application Period for Travel Assistance to ApacheCon US 2009 Opens Soon

[Thorsten Scherler <th...@apache.org>]

The Travel Assistance Committee is taking in applications for those
wanting to attend ApacheCon US 2009 (Oakland) which takes place between
the 2nd and 6th November 2009.

The Travel Assistance Committee is looking for people who would like to
be able to attend ApacheCon US 2009 who may need some financial support
in order to get there. There are limited places available, and all
applications will be scored on their individual merit. Applications are
open to all open source developers who feel that their attendance would
benefit themselves, their project(s), the ASF and open source in
general.

Financial assistance is available for flights, accommodation,
subsistence and Conference fees either in full or in part, depending on
circumstances. It is intended that all our ApacheCon events are covered,
so it may be prudent for those in Europe and/or Asia to wait until an
event closer to them comes up - you are all welcome to apply for
ApacheCon US of course, but there should be compelling reasons for you
to attend an event further away that your home location for your
application to be considered above those closer to the event location.

More information can be found on the main Apache website at
http://www.apache.org/travel/index.html - where you will also find a
link to the online application and details for submitting.

Applications for applying for travel assistance will open on 27th July
2009 and close of the 17th August 2009.

Good luck to all those that will apply.

Regards,

The Travel Assistance Committee
