Great! Thanks, Joe. The Edit a Thon will be at the UW Seattle Campus in the Research Commons.
Our planning committee is meeting again on August 15 at 10am at UW Seattle if anyone wants to attend! We are also glad to send a rep to a Wikipedia meeting.

Certainly at the very least a couple of us can be there as resources. I certainly would love to. Cafe Allegro meeting has been a bit irregular lately, but I'm sure we can set something up well before November. Will the event be on the UW Seattle campus or elsewhere?
