Just one question; why 2014? 2013 isn't bid until
the end of this year, if I
am reading it correctly, so we still have a decent amount of time to put
together a bid for that...? No rush of course, just wondering on the reason
:)
It will take at least a year to put together a good bid, especially if
we want to line up sponsors in advance of the bidding. (If we put a
large budget in the bid with no evidence that we'll be able to fund
it, we don't stand a chance. If we try to do a low-budget conference
in the UK, we'll end up putting most of our effort into keeping costs
down rather than running a good conference.)
