Thanks Matt! I want to echo Matt's sentiments in that I really enjoyed the discussion, though I was busier than I thought I would be. So much so, in fact, that I've just been re-reading the transcript, which is now available online at https://lopsa.org/content/lopsa-live-may-08-2012-candidate-forum-transcript
If your head was spinning as fast as mine was, then you probably want to go back and take another look, too. Thanks to all of the candidates and members who were in the room - you made it a great event. We also got some good discussion on twitter, if you want to search for the #sysadmin and #lopsa hashtags. So thanks again, we'll be back doing this again soon! --Matt On Tue, May 8, 2012 at 9:43 PM, Matt Disney <[email protected]> wrote: > All, > > I enjoyed the #lopsa-live today and appreciate the questions, > candidate discussions, and moderator, Matt Simmons. > > Don't forget that #lopsa-live is not the only venue for board election > discussions.
