Re: ApacheCon NA 2013 - Save the Dates

["William A. Rowe Jr." <de...@rowe-clan.net>]

So, a good number of us are present at OSCon.

Steve, what is your availability in the late afternoon?  It would be good to
have a sit down and start collecting data and questions to put to the wiki,
and perhaps hand out some early assignments to the ASF to get things moving
in the right direction.  It would be especially useful to have a planning
calendar so that everyone is aware of when decisions need to be made and
when messaging needs to be broadcast.

William:

Thanks for your note. I live in Portland, so it should not be difficult to meet up with me during OSCON. I am keen to put faces to names and meet as many of the Apache community as I can - especially ones who are looking to help out at the European conference!

I'm not sure to which date your "late afternoon" inquiry above refers.

If we can manage it I would like to maybe host a meal during OSCON, though there are enough attractions that it's difficult to find a time that doesn;t conflict with *something*.

I'm working on the time line now, and we are looking to have the initial web site up next week.
