> The Travel Assistance Committee is taking in applications for those wanting

> 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.
