For anyone interested in Devcon, I made a sign up form for 3 =20 dates/times that I'm available to do group demo/prep work. Please add =20 your name if you'd like to meet at any of those times:
http://rockfactory.us/events/devcon.html The meeting room will be http://rockfactory.us/rooms/room20 , =20 user/pass will be devcon/devcon. I'll confirm the times/dates at the =20 above page, once a few people have signed up.
