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.)
All those reasons seem sensible :)
In terms of money/cost - is this where WMUK could earmark some of the
underspend?
