I could imagine that Thursday evening would nice. I touch down at 12am, so that give me enough time go through immigration and check-in somewhere. I might be a bit jet-lagged, though, but that can’t be helped :-) Greetings, Joachim -- Joachim "nomeata" Breitner Debian Developer nomeata(a)debian.org | ICQ# 74513189 | GPG-Keyid: F0FBF51F JID: nomeata(a)joachim-breitner.de | http://people.debian.org/~nomeata

We need a wide variety of talents to help pull everything together for the estimated 300 attendees, many of them international.

Looking to volunteer for Debconf14

by Carl Worth

Hi folks, I've sadly never attended DebConf, and now that it's coming local I'm definitely going to fix that. I'd like to go one better and help volunteer to make this a great conference. I've seen some discussion on this list in the past. Are there other places where discussion is happening? Are there any in-person meetings happening? -Carl

DC14 Day Trip Ideas

by Patty Langasek

I've been kicking around 1 day trip idea that keeps growing on me more and more and more to the point that I'm starting to obsess on it. So, before I become married and inseparable from the idea, I want to get other peoples' thoughts, have some time to accept criticism and see if anyone Knows People to help make something like this happen affordably (Remember, we're Debian). I'd really like to split the day in 2 and have the first part of the day to mid-afternoon spent in the Columbia River Gorge with very light hiking (for those who want it), a tour of a few of the falls (including Multnomah, of course) and a stop by the Vista House. (And a picnic lunch because it'll be *August*.) >From there, trek people up to Mt Hood and let those who want to wander and hike the Timberline trails do so, and hopefully have our formal dinner there. The views from the lodge are breathtaking, and the drinks are awesome. (I mean, um.) I have requested information from Timberline to get a quote on what a dinner for our group size could be (estimating 350ish), and have kinda glanced for tour groups for the gorge, and tried not to cry when I saw the prices per person. I don't think we'd need a *tour*, but I guess we'd also have to look up what we'd have to be responsible for if we just arranged a bunch of buses to wander around the Scenic Highway. The idea is to do this in the middle of the week, so traffic and outrageous numbers of people shouldn't be that much of an issue. (Maybe. Hopefully.) Anyway. Ideas? Thoughts? Do I go back to the drawing board on this? p -- ---------------------------------------------------------- Patty Langasek harmoney(a)dodds.net ---------------------------------------------------------- At times, you may end up far away from home; you may not be sure of where you belong, anymore.
