Hi Everyone
Applications for Travel Assistance for Apachecon Seville is now open, so
if you are interested in going to Apachecon but cannot for get there due
to financial reasons, please apply.
Being a TAC volunteer is a great experience as you get the chance to
meet a huge range of people from around the world (as well as attending
Apachecon itself). I've previously been funded by TAC and the link to my
story is below.

The Travel Assistance Committee (TAC) are pleased to announce that
travel assistance applications for ApacheCon EU 2016 are now open! We
will be supporting ApacheCon EU, Seville, Spain, November 14th - 18th, 2016.
TAC exists to help those that would like to attend ApacheCon events, but
are unable to do so for financial reasons. For more info on this years
applications and qualifying criteria, please visit the TAC website at <
http://www.apache.org/travel/ >. Applications are already open, so don't
delay!
ApacheCon EU is split into two separate themed events - Apache Big Data
and ApacheCon. Due to the small time frame of each event (3 days and 2
days), the Apache Travel Assistance Committee will only be accepting
applications from those people that are able to attend BOTH events.
Important: Applications close on Thursday, September 29, 2016.
Applicants have until the closing date above to submit their
applications (which should contain as much supporting material as
required to efficiently and accurately process their request), this will
enable TAC to announce successful awards shortly afterwards.
As usual, TAC expects to deal with a range of applications from a
diverse range of backgrounds. We therefore encourage (as always) anyone
thinking about sending in an application to do so ASAP.
We look forward to greeting many of you in Seville, Spain in November 2016.
Kind Regards,
Rich, on behalf of Melissa, on behalf of the Travel Assistance Committee
