[Linux-aus] linux.conf.au Bid Guidelines

[James Turnbull]

Hi all

The Council has started drafting some Bid Guidelines for LCAs.  We've 
drawn up a proposed time line for each year and some brief guidelines 
around bids and their structure.

The time line proposed:

* April - The council updates the bid process documentation.
* May - The council will formally request expressions of interest for LCA.
* August - Submission of formal bids closes.
* September - The council clarifies any questions regarding the bids and 
visits each bid team.
* October - The council decides on the winning city and informs the 
bidding teams.

You can see details of the guidelines at:

We'd welcome comments and suggestions on the proposed time line and 
guidelines.

Cheers

James Turnbull
