Re: [BLUG] Linux LanParty/Linux Fest

Okay. I've double-checked it with my wife.

I can join in the party as long as it isn't on Easter Weekend. That's
April 11-12.

I'm game any other weekend, however I do like the idea of avoiding the
weekend of Little 500 -- particularly as we're doing this downtown.

Is April 18th still looking good for folks?

Cheers,
Steven Black
