There are a number of great pubs in the vicinity of the conference center - Rails Conf is later this month at the same venue, so I'll see what works best for the various meetups that happen in conjunction with it.
The best place depends on how many people we expect, and whether we plan to walk from the OSCON or take the light rail / drive somewhere. We should pick a day - Monday's out for me, as I'll be flying in late from RubyFringe, and more importantly, the date for FOSCON (the semi-legendary free night put on by Portland's user groups) is not yet set, so perhaps we should wait on that to happen. I set a reminder for myself in early July to check the status on FOSCON etc - so maybe we should wait until some of the other things are scheduled.
