FOSCON III planning meeting

[Thomas Lockney]

I've set up an initial planning meeting for FOSCON III on Monday, April
16th, 7PM at The Lucky Lab (Hawthorne). If you're interested in being a part
of the planning for this event, please either show up to the meeting or let
us know in a response to this email and we'll be sure to follow up when we
set up whatever communication tools (mailing list, wiki, whatever...) to get
things moving.

CatHerder meeting notice is at http://pdxruby.org/events/show/27

Incidentally, we picked up foscon2007.com and I was thinking that
would make a great public face for the event. After a bit more
thought, I suspect that a simple setup of forum software, styled to
"look like the event," would be a perfect fit. If no-one is in
opposition, I'll at least get that set up this week.

Raymond,

I know it's been a while, but things are finally moving forward with
the FOSCON details and I was wondering if you still have this domain
available? We need to get some info online very soon and there's been
some issues with our hosting for the pdxruby.org site (as I think you
may already be aware, not sure who talked to you about the DNS and
such).

Also, you had mentioned the possibility of Needmore being interested
in being a sponsor a while back. We don't have everything worked out
as far as what costs there might be (still trying to find out if we
can have food at the venue), but it would be excellent if we knew we
might have a source of funds to cover some of these additional costs.
I think we might have the venue covered already (Holocene, btw, on the
24th), but I'll double check.

Thanks,
Thomas
