[Webcom] RE: Preparing for SSC2007, Australia May 14-18

Milton, what is the dress code for SSC2007?
I'm wondering whether presenters should be wearing suit and tie, or polo 
shirts.

Maybe we should be printing a tie with a street directory background, a 
penguin in the center, and a text box coming out from the penguin say 
[You are here].

Could also have the OSGeo watermark somewhere.
