Subject: Application Period Opens for Travel Assistance to ApacheCon US 2008
To: committers@apache.org


The Travel Assistance Committee is taking in applications for those wanting
 to attend ApacheCon US 2008 between the 3rd and 7th November 2008 in New
 Orleans.

 The Travel Assistance Committee is looking for people who would like to be
 able to attend ApacheCon US 2008 who need some financial support in order to
 get there. There are VERY few places available and the criteria is high,
 that aside 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, accomodation and entrance
 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 must 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 application form and details for submitting.

 Time is very tight for this event, so applications are open now and will end
 on the 2nd October 2008 - to give enough time for travel arrangements to be
 made.

 Good luck to all those that will apply.

 Regards,

 The Travel Assistance Committee
