I'm a student and django user who booked to attend DjangoCon in haste, as now my academic schedule is less flexible than I thought! They told me I should sell it. So if you want it for $175 (orig. value $250) just drop me a line. Many thanks. Chris -- You received this message because you are su

Have you guys seen adoptahacker.com? I'm sure that Jon Wegener and the team at New Work City would be happy to help with finding places for visitors to stay (as in couches/extra rooms). In terms of getting hotel rooms sponsored, we might be able to VCs to offer sponsorship for this (though we s

Without wishing to seem non-responsive, can I just point out that we can't keep extending the search indefinitely. First of all, we need to make a decision reasonably quickly.Secondly, these venue searches take time. While it costs nothing to "toss something out there", there *are* costs involved w

There seemed to be a general feeling that a change of venue should head Eastwards rather than South. So we are looking primarily for East coast locations as an alternative to Portland for 2011. regards Steve On 9/27/2010 11:49 PM, David Zhou wrote: > Is the bay area right out for cost reasons? >
