If there's a demand for it, I could probably be coaxed into doing an encore for the Mongers sometime in the upcoming weeks. :-) Joy, `/anick From yanick at babyl.dyndns.org Sun May 10 17:32:35 2009 From: yanick at babyl.dyndns.org (Yanick Champoux) Date: Sun, 10 May 2009 20:32:35 -0400 Subject: [Ottawa-pm] [Fwd: [pm_groups] YAPC::NA - Housing, Schedule, Hackathons, ...] Message-ID: <4A077223.5030607@babyl.dyndns.org> -------- Original Message -------- YAPC::NA is in Pittsburgh, PA at Carnegie Mellon University June 22-24, 2009.
