It's my pleasure to announce that the winning bid for FUDCon in the Asia-Pacific region for 2011 is Pune, India. FUDCon APAC 2011 is scheduled for November 4th through 6th at the College of Engineering, Pune, India. FUDCon is the Fedora Users and Developers Conference, a premier Fedora event that is held several times a year in different regions of the world. For more information on premier Fedora events, see the Fedora wiki [0]. As you might imagine, choosing the winning bid was a difficult decision to make, as both bidding teams have put together very compelling bids. I'd like to publicly thank both teams for their hard work and effort, and invite the Beijing team to submit a bid for next year's FUDCon APAC as well. I'm also now opening up bidding for FUDCon APAC 2012 and FUDCon LATAM 2012. FUDCon APAC 2012 will be held between March 1st and May 31st, and FUDCon LATAM will be held between June 1st - August 31st. All bids for both of these FUDCon events should be submitted by August 11th. If you have any questions or concerns regarding FUDCon events, I invite you to subscribe to the FUDCon planning mailing list [1].
