Yeah if Walter just wants to shoot me a date a month early I can setup
our office booking
and some pizzas and some Firefox swag ;) and Walter can order some
Ubuntu swag.
Maybe he can even arrange for a rental to drive folks up?

Sounds to me like some of our key members, who have been great
contributors (U know who UR) are going to be at LFNW, AND due to
the short time frame we'd be facing, not to mention, Canonical
requiring several months notice to approve funding. That said;
looks like we'll have to wait until October to hold a release
party, as suggested by Benjamin.
As for location - I'm all for holding it in Salem, however I would
ALSO like to hold it at Mozilla, because I'm a big fan of FF.
That is if we can plan our event (which maybe sometime during
first or second week of October) around Benjamin's schedule. Plus
it'll be great to see those members, who otherwise would have been
at LFNW. AND of course we have more time to do as Walter
suggested; "we can ABSOLUTELY get a jam pack full of goodies."
;-) Very nice - much thanks Walter.
I'll be at tomorrow's Salem Ubuntu held at Broadway commons, while
there, Cody and I can check on conference room pricing for
October, just in case we can't get Mozilla. Even though I'm for
going to Mozilla or bust... LOL.
Thanks all, for supporting a truly great OS.
Ciao for now
Phil. N

Well, they've been adding more money every year to

It is not the quickest possible process, but I can
give you the names
of key people if you want to sort of expedite the
process.
