Hi all,

The Open Help Conference is in less than a month. We'd talked
about doing a hackfest during the post-conference. I've been
talking to the board about getting funding. I'd really like
to get our five (!) OPW interns there, but we should also
have experienced people.

I don't know how much funding we'll be able to secure, or how
many people the foundation will be able to send. Or, for that
matter, whether there's any money. But I kind of think there's
some.

I know Phil and Jim are planning on coming. I don't know how
many days after the conference they plan to stay.

The conference is in Cincinnati, OH, USA on June 3rd-5th.
The hackfest would happen after that, June 6th-9th. (We
could go longer on the hackfest if people want, but we
will have to change venues.)

So, if you're interested, please let me know as soon as
possible. If we're to secure funding, we have to act now.

Thanks,
Shaun

It would be great if we could get more people there. As for my availability, it all depends on my work situation, which is unclear at this point. I might have to stay for the conference only, or I might be making arrangements to move in sleep on Shaun and Silke's couch for months on end.
