Unfortunately,  the people on the Red Hat team is having
a very hard time finding reasonable airfares to the 
West coast. Instead of $300 or $400 its well over 
$1000 which is causing push back by our management.

I, personally, have been looking for the last a couple
weeks, hoping the the prices would come down but they
have not... They have not gone up, but they have 
not come down. 

So at this point it looks like the Red Hat team 
will not be attend this BAT, which is disappointing
because the timing actually worked out well with our
internal scheduling.

With that said, I had every intention after this BAT
of announcing the date Fall BAT for the last week
in Sept (25th to 29th). Hopefully at this point
airfares will be more reasonable so it will be 
well attended. I will make a more official 
announcement later on... 

steved.
