[Koha] KUDOS 2012

[Joann Ransom]

Hi Greg,

One option you could consider is to put in a bid to host KohaCon13. I too
cannot afford to go to KohaCon12 because it is in the same financial year
as KohaCon11 for us. Depending on when your financial year runs KohaCon13
might be in the right financial period for you.

Cheers Jo.
