Application Period Opens for Travel Assistance to ApacheCon US 2008

[David Sean Taylor]

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

i'm pretty sure the HackAthon is no-charge

just in case you can afford to go south
starwood is sold-out for those 2 weeks so you'll have to go to the marriott
https://www.marriott.com/reservation/rateListMenu.mi
marriott has rooms for 149.00 ..unless you're a senior or with the government

BTW: you'll also need a ride in from the airport (apparently there's no mass-transit) which costs a min of 30$

With Warm Regards,
Martin
