Perhaps I should also raise the question of which days the event would best be organized on. My informal model has been of a three-day conference preceded by a two-day unconference (of much smaller size) primarily for Foundation leadership and committers and followed by a two-day sprint. So, if we chose the last option listed the unconference would be on the Sunday and Monday and the sprints would be Friday and Saturday. If something else is more appropriate then please let me know. regards Steve -- Steve Holden [email protected], Holden Web, LLC http://holdenweb.com/ Python classes (and much more) through the web http://oreillyschool.com/ Conferences and technical event management at http://theopenbastion.com/ Next: Open Django Central Jun 8-9: http://opendjango.com/central/
