Summit Move: More Seats, new Venue (Re: Hadoop summit on March 25th)

Good news!

We've located a new venue for the Hadoop Summit (not far from Yahoo), have
capacity for another 75 people, and are still keeping the event free.
Thanks to Amazon Web Services for chipping in some food money. :-)

Sign up now and pass the word:

http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/436226/
http://developer.yahoo.com/blogs/hadoop/2008/03/hadoop-summit-move.html

We're in the process of updating the summit site and notifying a few other
groups as well.

Thanks for all the interest.  We're looking forward to a day packed full of
Hadoop.

No problem!

Clearly there's demand.  As of a few minutes ago, we're at capacity once
again.  So I hope everyone who wanted in was able to get on the list.

See some of you in just over a week...
