I'd be willing and available to make an appearance on Thursday, Nov. 8, 2001 ;D (given more assurance, and turnout, and details...), and hopefully, I'll make the silicon valley perl mongers meeting on Tuesday, Nov. 8-2, 2001 A few questions though, what's going to go on? how much $$? food?(allowed and/or $$?) ___crazyinsomniac_______________________________________ `Disclaimer: Don't blame.

I just got word back from the linuxshowcase organizers... seems that anyone can drop by a BoF..... blakem wrote: > I'm thinking of scheduling a perlmonks BoF for the upcoming ALS, and > was wondering if people could attend it w/o registering for the > conference?

If you'd like to schedule one, just let + me know! Certainly, all are welcome to the BOFs, regardless of how much +or how little they've paid. [download] So, now its just a matter of actually picking a day.... The intersection of the BoF days with the free tech-session days is 'Thursday, Friday' I have one no-vote for Friday, along with a general feeling that for some, a Friday night might be too precious to spend on a pm gathering. So, at this moment Thursday evening November 8th is the most probable date. I'll wait a week or so before I make it official. -Blake	[reply] [d/l]

This is part of the Annual Linux Showcase, but you don't have to be registered to attend the BoF. Everyone in Northern California is encouraged to attend. Hope to see you there. /msg me if you are interested in going or have any questions -Blake	[reply]
