Hi Roberto,

Mid-week is better for higher attendance, particularly if we are promoting
Plone to business and Government, so I vote for Wednesday, 27 May.

Thanks Virginia

+1. Birds of a feather.

I would recommend late April or very early May. Why? Because 
universities typically have graduation the first weekend in May, after 
which a large part of the audience for WPD scatters to the winds until fall.

That leaves us May 15 and May 29th - I think May 29th is a Jewish

Thank you Donna, Chriss and all who gave very valuable feedback.

If there are enough consensus we could do it may 27th (Wednesday).
Are there any issue with that date ?

Kind Regards

Mid to late May would be excellent!  For those of us in academia 
(universities), this puts it after the end of the spring semester, but 
before summer semesters begin.
