FUDCon would possibly qualify as a Category II, if we can procure University sponsorship from a department, or Category III (None-university related event).  I don't know if Cat. II requires us to have a certain percentage of students vs. non-students; this is something to look into.


There are ~25 rooms available on the second floor of the Memorial Union, ranging in size from 16 occupants to 575 occupants. Here are some examples of pricing:
=== Estimated cost for the visit by land ===


Yuma - Occupancy 25 - Category II, $140; Category III, $300.
From the north: the river in May or Angasmayo, small tributary of the Patia to 2 degrees north latitude, in Colombia. The headquarters of the northern settlement and important far was located in the modern city of Pasto (Nariño Department) to 1 º 4 '18 "north latitude.
Turquoise Ballroom - Occupancy 180-249 - Category II, $500; Category III, $1600
Pima Auditorium - Occupancy 150 - Category II, $260; Category III, $800
Mohave - Occupancy 66 - Category II, $180; Category III, $600
Gold - Occupancy 80 - Category II, $180; Category III, $600


Full pricing can be seen here on page 2 of the [http://www.asu.edu/studentaffairs/mu/events/docs/information_sheet2008.pdf Memorial Union Events and Services] document.
On the southern port of Incorporation and the Maule River, 35 º 6 '9 "south latitude. A further advance would set that limit at the Bio Bio River, between the tip and the town of Tumbes Los Angeles, 37 ° 23 '7 "south latitude.
 
*  In the southeast: Northern Argentina, Tucma area (Tucumán).
Additionally, the first floor of the MU has a place called "Sparky's Den" - 8 bowling lanes, 15 billiards tables, and video games.  It can be reserved - costs are not detailed on the website.  Alcohol permits can also be obtained.
To the east: the Andean buttresses the Andean jungle or rupa-rupa.
 
* To the west: the Pacific Ocean.
==== Food and Catering ====
The MU has an in house catering service.  Please see [http://www.asu.edu/studentaffairs/mu/events/catering.htm MU's Catering] information for more details.  Food may also be purchased from any of the dining venues IN the MU or from Domino's Pizza for events held in the MU.

Everyone flying in from the east coast gets to essentially SLEEP IN - vs. the west coasters having to wake up three hours early when FUDCon is in an eastern location. --[[User:Rbergero|Rbergero]] 05:03, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
[http://www.oltursa.pe/ Oltursa]


The weather provides a great environment for possibly hacking outdoors, walking around and not freezing in the middle of winter.  It's also a great escape from the cold which could help with productivity. --[[User:Herlo|Herlo]] 22:30, 12 May 2010 (UTC)
=== Estimated costs of flights major airports that attendees will travel from. ===


Variety of location is of key importance. To involve more possible contributors to participate in the Fedora Project, it would seem logical that having events throughout North America would be justified. While the expense is a bit higher for some (the East coast), it provides an opportunity for those who live nearer the West to attend FUDCon. Especially those who have heard about free software, but aren't sure how to go about getting involved. The new venue provides another way to encourage new contributors to join up and get involved. --[[User:Herlo|Herlo]] 22:30, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

Insane state laws that could result in conference attendees being arrested and held as illegal immigrants. ''(Note: Dear anonymous submitter, please feel free to submit your own proposal for a better state. Perhaps we could have it in Boston, where witches used to be burned at the stake? Seriously, though, either put something together, be more constructive, but please, leave the politics out. --[[User:Rbergero|Rbergero]] 14:22, 12 May 2010 (UTC))
''
: As much as I disagree with the law in question, several other conditions make it unreasonable for us to pick our location based on a state regulation with which we disagree:
: 1. Given the past exemplary behavior of FUDCon attendees, it's unlikely anyone would be involved in an illegal activity that would attract law enforcement attention.  (Doing so in just about any state, as it turns out, is sufficient grounds to enforce immigration laws.)
: 2. It's highly unlikely we can find ''any'' location where state politics don't upset someone.
: 3. Even ignoring those factors, the number of international visitors to FUDCon is likely to be somewhat low since we have global FUDCon events.
: 4. The bid process for FUDCon is a process that was open to the entire community, and two volunteers in the Tempe area stepped forward to do the necessary planning and logistics work to make FUDCon happen.  In the absence of any other bids, I think it would be wrong for the Fedora community to turn our back on their work for reasons beyond their control.

Location

About Lima

Lima is the capital and largest city of Peru. It is located in the valleys of the Chillón, Rímac and Lurín rivers, in the central part of the country, on a desert coast overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Together with the seaport of Callao, it forms a contiguous urban area known as the Lima Metropolitan Area. With a population fast approaching 9 million, Lima is the fifth largest city in Latin America, behind Mexico City, São Paulo, Buenos Aires and Rio de Janeiro. Lima is home to one of the largest financial hubs in Latin America. It has been defined as a beta world city by GaWC international rankings.

Lima is home to the oldest higher learning institution in the New World. The National University of San Marcos, founded on May 12, 1551 during Spanish colonial regime, is the oldest continuously functioning university in the Americas.
