I'm donating my time before the event to help plan and make the party happen!

Tantek Çelik - coordinating
Rohit Khare - venue, sponsors
Kevin Marks - venue, sponsors
Ben Ward - tshirts, sponsors
- contact Dan Cederholm re: current/previous design and vendor used
Lauren Scime - design / venue / sponsors / publicity?
- party graphics - Main Upcoming graphic, badges/banners to put on your blog, other print collateral such as stickers & possibly buttons??? Other suggestions for graphics/collateral?
- possibly redesign the "Microformats Cheat Sheet" - either for party or at least by MicroformatsDevCamp, also will communicate with venue, sponsors
Jeremy Anderson - will help Lauren w/design, etc.

We need:

Sign up to be a volunteer! We need volunteers to check people in at the door, take donations, hand out stickers, t-shirts etc.

Some thoughts on donations:

take donations at the door, sliding scale $5-$20. $10 or more gets you a t-shirt.
donations go towards the party and microformatsDevCamp this summer.

I want to show up and help celebrate so I'm signing up here and stating what dates work for me:

There are several possibilities for venue, let's figure out what makes the most sense:

111 Minna
21st Amendment mezzanine
- capacity: 38 people seated, ~50 standing drinks plus appetizers.
- cost: no charge for user groups
Varnish
- available for the 20th;
- costs $350/hr with non-profit discount (one hour setup is free)
...

We could do this on either June 19th (Friday) or June 20th (Saturday) depending on venue and attendee availability.
