It's that time of year again--we need your bids in to host YAPC::NA in
your town next summer. Most of the details for a bid are in my [0]post
from last year. Same rules apply this year.

To re-iterate a few points:

  *  If you plan on bidding, folks from your group should really attend
    [1]YAPC::NA this year to see how things work and maybe even help out.

  *  Get your bid ready early and we'll give you feedback before the due
    date at the [2]YAPC BOF.
  * [3]Venue requirements are available and bids from previous years are
    available in the [4]TPF Blog. Last year all of the bids were very
    good, so they are a good resource.

  *  Details on running a YAPC are available in the [5] TPF project on
    Google code.

  *  As with previous years, the bids will be made public in the [4]TPF
    Blog after the due date.



Send any questions and completed bids to the TPF conferences group:
tpf-conferences (at) perl (dot) org
