[Travel Assistance] Applications for ApacheCon EU 2009 - Now Open
The Travel Assistance Committee is now accepting applications for those
wanting to attend ApacheCon EU 2009 between the 23rd and 27th March 2009 in
Amsterdam.

The Travel Assistance Committee is looking for people who would like to be
able to attend ApacheCon EU 2009 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 or open
source in general.

Financial assistance is available for travel, accommodation 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
the United States or Asia to wait until an event closer to them comes up -
you are all welcome to apply for ApacheCon EU 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 online application form.

Time is very tight for this event, so applications are open now and will end
on the 4th February 2009 - to give enough time for travel arrangements to be
made.

Good luck to all those that apply.


Regards,
The Travel Assistance Committee
