Hi --
Just a quick note. As part of the open-source conference OSCON, Linux Fund
has invited developers and users of the gEDA Toolset to a party! The party
details are here:
http://www.linuxfund.org/press/anniversary/
As you probably know, Linux Fund has established a project to gather donations
so that various usability improvements may be built into gEDA/PCB. This is a
high-profile project which we hope will pave the way to improving uptake of
gEDA with all users, but particularly amongst newbies.
I believe a few invitations to the LF party were already sent privately to
folks who have contributed both to LF and to PCB and are in the Silicon Valley
area. Thank you to those contributors!
It would be nice to see other gEDA fellow travelers go to the party. The
event is in San Jose from July 20 -- 24. You'll have the chance to meet
other gEDA users, as well as be exposed to a larger F/OSS ecosystem.

FWIW, I'm not going since it's 3000 miles away from me. :-( But if you're a
Silicon Valley local (or will be there for some reason), and are interested in
attending, drop me an e-mail (sdb (AT) cloud9 (DOT) net) and I'll put you in
touch with the relevant people.
Cheers,
Stuart
