Hi All, Sorry for any confusion regarding registration for the unconference.
The event website development is now underway thanks to the help of Sara at Greenpoint Coworking! Once it's launched in the next couple of weeks it will include a link to register on EventBrite. In the meantime, please feel free to 'RSVP' on the Plancast ( http://plancast.com/p/33pl) so we can gain an understanding of the size of the group. Thanks again to all of you who have reached out to help! We'll be in touch with more information soon!
