Subject: [Conferences] Call for Venue for YAPC::Europe::2016
Message-ID: <20150309104933.GD48170@heechee.tobez.org>

Although YAPC::Europe::2015 preparations are well underway in Granada,
it is time for the venue committee of the YAPC::Europe Foundation (YEF)
to think about the location of the 2016 conference.  YAPC::Europe wouldn't
exist without dedicated teams of volunteers, and we are always excited
to see the enthusiasm and learn about the new ideas the community has to
offer.

Further information about preparing a complete application can be
found at http://www.yapceurope.org/organizers/index.html .
Proposals submitted to the venue committee will be added to this public
repository: http://www.yapceurope.org/yapc_proposals/
(you may provide private information separately) to benefit future
organizers.

The deadlines which apply to this portion of the procedure are:

* Friday, 15 May:  Deadline for sending a letter of intent.  This
  letter simply expresses interest in hosting the conference and provides
  contact information (both email and telephone) for at least two organizers.
  This is an optional step but it can be to your advantage to alert the
  venue committee of your proposal.
* Thursday, 16 July:  Deadline for sending proposals to host YAPC::Europe
  2016.

If you do not receive a confirmation for your letter of intent or proposal
within a couple of days, please personally contact a member of the venue
committee.

Please send your questions, letters of intent, and proposals to
venue at yapceurope.org.
