Now that Novell's bought SuSE and Ximian? Yes. Commit howard, give him a fly-in slot for now, and see if Novell will consent to free it up later, perhaps as some kind of sponsorship deal. Ummm... Who am I forgetting. I believe this means our current guest list is Steve Jackson, Eric Raymond, Eric Flint, and Howard Taylor, that last three of whom are allocated fly-in slots (and the first of whom might get extra dealer's room space instead). Bruce Sterling and John Carmack are in the maybe category. We have two fly-in slots left, one of which is being offered to Fred Gallagher, and the other is being held in reserve. If Mercedes Lackey and Larry Dixon wanted to drive down, that would be a good thing... :) Rob
