The site of the meeting is still not fixed. But the airport has great connections and great mass transit to a nice downtown; the hotel prices are great; it's a very nice city to meet in; and, well, nobody has come up with anything better than Skip came up with. That's my current take on it. I'm also proposing that we go with more of a "work" workshop format, i.e. people bring guruplugs and other cool hardware and we have sessions like using jtag on your plan 9 plug computer and other such down 'n dirty stuff, and people actual do lots of participation, rather than watch power point slides. ron
