Hey folks,

I am happy to make this happen and will find the space, I just need you all
to give me a little time to finish up with the programming ant the early
bird registration, then I will circle back and help you organize this.
Early bird ends on the 15th of May, then I will be free to make this happen.

So, with that in mind, plan as if you have the space you need... but let me
know what space you need and when you think you would like it.

;)
