Hi Everyone This is a reminder that the applications for travel funding to attend Apachecon NA in Vancouver closes on 2nd March 2016.
If you want to go to Apachecon but cannot due to financial reasons then you can apply to the Travel Assistance Committee (TAC) for the cost of your flights, accommodation, living expenses and the cost of entry to Apachecon itself. At Apachecon in Budapest the TAC members asked us to communicate to our communities that : - You do not need to be a Committer to apply for funding, anyone that is part of an Apache project community can apply - You do not need to have submitted a presentation to apply for travel funding - The people that receive travel funding are expected to help out throughout Apachecon as the conference volunteers (which is nice because you meet a lot of people from other Apache projects!) - You do not need to live in Apachecon host country or region to apply for funding (e.g. TAC funded people from India, Africa and Canada for Apachecon EU 2015) In 2014 I applied for and received travel funding from TAC to attend Apachecon EU in Budapest. It was a fantastic experience and I'd recommend anyone wanting to attend an Apachecon to apply. Applications are still open if you want to go to Vancouver, I've included the link below : http://www.apache.org/travel/ Thanks Sharan -- View this message in context: http://ofbiz.135035.n4.nabble.com/Reminder-Travel-Assistance-For-Apachecon-NA-2016-in-Vancouver-tp4677248.html Sent from the OFBiz - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
