dates

  • If we're still in the planning/getting sponsors/finding a venue stages, perhaps we should postpone a week? As far as availability, I'm free most weekends through till the end of August. We should pick a target date & get moving if we want this to happen. --Lauren Scime 17:20, 10 July 2009 (UTC-7)
    • We have postponed a week from the original goal of 7/18 to 7/25.
    • Please see planner roles section and grab 1-2 roles that you want to help out with and add them next to your name in the planners list as Rohit, Chris and I have done. --Tantek 17:36, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

volunteers

Like all BarCamps, this event is what it is because of what everyone puts into it. Volunteer to help setup, check people in, clean up, and help people in general have a good time and get things done.
