>From my perspective, it was more of a fun competition. Yes, we did look at the stats, and yes, we did want to do "well". But I think for all of us in Florida, the real value was the opportunity to get more people involved with the LoCo and contributing back to Ubuntu in general. Since Miami has been very active in IRC, but not with events, we'll judge our success over the next year with how vigorous that community gets. Dan PS I'll say it now.
