Apache Event in Inda (December timeframe)

The ICFOSS is planning a conference in India in early December, and wanted
to offer us an Apache Track in the conference.

The format of the conference is usually as follows (there could be some
variation from this):

Day 1 (10 am - 4 pm): Tutorials / Unconference/ Contests etc
Day 1 (4:30 pm - 5:30):  Inauguration & Keynote

Day 2 (9:30 - 10:30): Plenary talks
Day 2 (11:00 - 5:00): Parallel tracks (usually about 3 tracks)
Day 2 (evening): Cultural Program and Dinner

Day 3 (9:30 - 3:00): Parallel tracks (could be different tracks from day 1)
Day 3 (3:30 - 4:30): Plenary talks
Day 3 (4:30 - 5:00): Concluding Session

We could have an Apache track on Day 2 (11:00 am through 5 pm). And
possible discuss an Unconference and/or Hackaton for day 1.

Thoughts ?

I'm trawling through my mail backlog now that I'm in a semi-permanent home
here in the US (my furniture even arrives on Friday!). Sorry for not
picking this up earlier.

I recently updated the trademark policy for getting approval for events -
see http://www.apache.org/foundation/marks/events.html

What would the goal be, from an Apache perspective?

Do we have people in India (or willing to travel) to make this happen?

Are you hoping to make a case for some financial support for Apache
representation?

What support do you want from the ASF (other than financial)?

Note we've just started to think about providing an Event in a Box to
support activities such as this. It's currently empty so even brainstorming
around this now would be valuable even if you decide not to go ahead with
it.

Here is the website from the previous conference they have organized (this
is going to be the 5th edition of this conference)

http://fossk.in/4/

They had about 180 participants, including developers, students,
grassroots-level activists, free media practitioners and government
officials.
