> 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.
