It's a short notice but it would be nice if something can be done around ZendCon.
I am definitively interested but available time is not abundant. I arrive on Sunday 31st (probably in the afternoon depending on transportation from SF to Santa Clara) and leave Saturday evening. I could arrange to stay an additional day if needed. I think the organization should be done by someone in the area, only one I know from the area is Dustin and the people from the SF meetup group, maybe they can help?
