Hi David,

Eventually, projects that create short-lived branches for each JIRA
issue, will not appreciate this measure, but that will not be a short
term effect. More of a medium term or long term effect.

I know I have been meaning to clean out the merged branches in the
Any23 git repository, but have not got around to it. Luckily, they
have not built up to the point where they are unmanageable yet, as
there is only 5 or so in the apache repository at this point so a
hiatus on that will not affect us.

Cheers,

Peter

Hi pmcs@,

The Travel Assistance Committee (TAC) are pleased to announce that travel
assistance applications for ApacheCon NA 2016 are now open!

This announcement serves as a purpose for you (pmcs@) to let members of
your community know about both ApacheCon NA 2016 and about the TAC
assistance to attend. Could you please forward this announcement to your
community, along with (if possible) information on how your project is
involved in ApacheCon this year?

We will be supporting ApacheCon NA, Vancouver BC, May 9th - 13th 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!

This year ApacheCon NA is split into two separate themed events - Apache
BigData
<http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/apache-big-data-north-america>
and *ApacheCon*
<http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/apachecon-north-america>. 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 Wednesday, March 2, 2016.*

Applicants have until the the closing date above to submit their
applications (which should contain as much supporting material as required
to efficiently and accurately process your 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 Vancouver, BC in May 2016!

Best

Lewis
(On behalf of the Travel Assistance Committee)
