YC to London?

It's a moot point because we couldn't organize an event in another country that fast even if we wanted to.
Sure, the timeframe of this particular request isn't feasible but that doesn't make the question of coming to London a moot point.
You've said before that you would 'possibly' come to London. If you gave more info about what the difficulties are then that might either (a) help people understand why it might not be worthwhile yet or (b) what the hurdles are that local folks might be able to help with.
I'm certainly willing to help out at this end (and I'm sure many others are too).

Yes you could. There's enough of us in London, able to pull together a venue, and the right audience, within a week or two. All you need to do is commit to a date, and let a few of us in London take care of the rest. So when are you free?
Hi Paul - thanks for replying - I've had offers of 2 venues already tonight, I organise www.g2i.org and www.pembridge.net events for hundreds so have a great network of venues, investors & entrepreneurs in London already - all it would take from you guys is to pop over and chat to the London folks - they'd love it.
Agreed! if anything, we could organise a whole day of talks/meetings, with a cross section of the startup community in london, including students, bootstrapped entrepreneurs, funded teams, and talented individuals with ideas
Forward we'll be happy to host the event at http://forwardtechnology.co.uk/venue and I'll help organise it, as I said before.
Two reasons to come:
1. London loves YC!
2. It's the 3rd biggest startup ecosystem in the world

+1 for YC London. :)
Should the Y Combinator team come to London to find awesome start-ups? I (@mstafford) think so and so do a lot of start-ups in London!
Do you want to help make this happen?
Please follow @ycldn, email me and RT this page to give Paul and the Y Combinator team the message that London is somewhere they should be, and that they should come see the awesome start-ups before the 10th October Y Combinator deadline!
