With any luck one week from now we will all be together enjoying the opening night at the Summit.
We do have a little bit of work to get done on that opening night and it would be great if we could all meet up at the booth as close to 3pm local time as we can to begin the booth set up. We have from 3pm to 9pm to get the booth in shape but it would be nice if we could get it done before 6pm if possible. Paul perhaps can shed some light on where we need to gather.
After we set up the booth, which really shouldn't take very long as all the booth supplies should be there waiting for us, Paul would like to talk with us for a short time about our activities at the Summit representing Fedora.
Then we can get registered and head as a group to the welcome reception to enjoy each other's company and eat some Chicago style food including deep dish pizza and hot dogs (Chicago style hot dogs might be a little different than your every day hot dog).
I'm really looking forward to meeting everyone next week, can't wait to get there and help in some way make this a great event for Fedora.
See you all in Chicago!

Apologies, I'm still trying to figure out exactly where we will be -- as you can guess the Summit organizers are very busy and hard to get a hold of right now! :-) Nevertheless, we'll either be on the show floor (the partner pavilion) or in a prominent place along the main promenade. Either way, the Fedora booth will be very easy to find.

It won't take long -- essentially I just want to make sure everyone understands our booth duties & schedule, and that we have coverage at appropriate times.
I've updated the wiki with a better table that follows the Summit schedule. I'd be deeply grateful if everyone attending could look at the table, compare it to the Summit agenda found here...

...and fill in a block or two when you feel comfortable holding down the booth. I will be there as much as humanly possible, but I do have to give my presentation, a series of press interviews, and a videotaping for our Creative team. I've tried to nail down my schedule as much as possible to make planning easier.

A hearty +1, my friend!
