Over the next nine days the decision will be made on the venue for WordCamp UK 2010.
This follows a bidding process, during which submissions have been made which aim to meet or exceed the 2010 venue requirements.
The bidding process has closed, and now the WordCamp UK mailing list (registration required) will be considering the bids and selecting a winner by 5 December 2009.
The two bids are:
- Manchester – Chi-chi Ekweozor has proposed accommodating the event at the Manchester Metropolitan University Business School.
- Portsmouth – Rich Boakes has bid to hold the event at the University of Portsmouth.
WordCamp UK is an informal annual gathering of WordPress publishers, designers and developers based in the United Kingdom.

Go for Portsmouth, it’s a billion times closer for those of us on the south coast. Something of a minimum 5/6 hours trip to Manchester :(

I’m putting my vote to Manchester simply because of the location.
Good luck to both bids!
