FUDCon NA - Putting in a bid for (sunny) Tempe, AZ.

[Robyn Bergeron]

Greetings Friends,

Just giving the heads-up that I am (officially!) putting together a
bid for the NA FUDCon for Tempe, AZ.

The work-in-progress can be seen here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon:Bid_for_Tempe_2011

I've just started getting in contact with hotels and such, as well as
tracking down possible free spaces to have meetings. But, it has been
officially kicked off - and I'd love to see other people put in their
bids for alternate cities as well!


Cheers,

-Robyn

I did some quick flight pricing estimates from various cities, and 
they're looking pretty good - especially for people coming from the West 
Coast of the US, who historically have had to fly a long way on 
expensive flights to hit FUDCon (afaict based on past locations).

Flight costs look fantastic from BOS/RDU.  That's a big plus!

/me is going to have to check what the flight costs are from AMS/BST ;-)

Ah -- if you're coming from AMS -- try to go through LHR, there is a
direct flight from LHR to PHX on british airways which I think runs 5
days a week. It makes for a good sleepytime. :)
