I've tried to find more information on this event on the web, but have had no 
luck.  There *is* an April 20-21 show.  Not the same one?
Yes, this is the show.  We were mistakenly told Oct, but in reality, the 
show is April 20-21.  Hopefully, everyone who was going to voluteer before, 
can still make it to on the correct date.

I'll use this as a chance to enjoy a short visit to London with my

booth, but not the whole event,

- Jim Brennan might also be able to make it.

If your name is on this list and it shouldn't be, or I have the level of

probably, and a need to get permission first, plus another maybe, we 
probably have enough to go ahead and reserve a booth.  Sound reasonable?

Sounds very reasonable - I suggest you go ahead and reserve it.

 Any additional volunteers are also welcome.  The more the merrier and the

 around the show themselves.  If it gets too crowded in the booth, you can
 just stand outside and pretend to look interested and ask questions.  Then
 everyone else will come over to see what's so interesting about our booth
 that it has a continual crowd.  Also note that this is a 2-day event so
 it's not quite as big a commitment as LWCE which can push four days.

I'm up for helping any way I can - transport kit?... lend my FG setup?...  
I've done a stand at the Farnborough Air Show once, but I know less about FG 
development than I think I need to in order to answer questions on the booth.  
Let me know what you want.  In any event, as Martin said, it would be good to 
meet some people.


 Thanks!

I'll probably be down there anyway - I'd be happy to help out. I don't

We need to know as soon as possible if any one (in addition to Jon) can 
commit to being at this conference and can commit to helping with the booth 
so we can apply for and (hopefully) get booth space before it is all gone. 
 I think if we could get another one or two people to say they are pretty 
certain they can be there, then we could go ahead and lock in some booth space.

Thanks,

 Based on past experience we should try to get this organized early so we
 can get a booth.  If you register late, you either don't get a booth at
 all, or the booth you do get is in the mens room next to all the other late
 register-ers. :-)


I'd be happy to help out I can make boths days definitely.
