Hi Greg, personally I hopefully think you only have a view to Northern America and not to the rest of this globe ... Because we in Europe need also to have a opportunity to have a FUDCon here ... And I also can tell you the date: Should be around Linuxtag Germany in 2008 (2008-05-28 till 2008-05-31)! So it's very near to that FUDCon you're planing again in Boston; or isn't it possible to have also one here? Be aware; it all takes also a lot of money :-( Regards Gerold Am Mittwoch, den 24.10.2007, 13:10 -0400 schrieb Greg DeKoenigsberg: > Take a look: > http://gregdek.livejournal.com/ > > The text: > > === > > Max and I just spent a half-hour with the lovely and talented Leigh Day. > She is the guru of Red Hat PR.
