The Travel Assistance Committee (TAC) are pleased to announce that travel assistance applications for ApacheCon North America 2016 are now open! This announcement serves as a purpose for you (pmcs@) to let members of your community know about both ApacheConNA 2016 and about the TAC assistance to attend. Could you please forward this announcement to your community, along with (if possible) information on how your project is involved in ApacheCon this year?
We will be supporting ApacheCon NA, Vancouver BC, May 9th - 13th 2016. TAC exists to help those that would like to attend ApacheCon events, but are unable to do so for financial reasons.
