I'll be there.

Name: Alex Gaynor

and if anyone's interested I'll give a talk on django-ajax-validation,
which is a reusable app I just released.

I'll be there, wherever it is.

If we have a projector (and anybody is interested), I could show
something of our new Django project,
http://food-accounting.com

Not much of interest technically, but socially-economically I think
it's interesting.

Plus, I just floated a trial balloon for a Pinax variation for whuffie
accounting for open source software projects:
http://groups.google.com/group/django-hotclub/browse_frm/thread/d9edfa311265c95c

Wd be interested in opinions on that subject, too.

We are okay to have the meeting at Orbitz, but next time I must give
two weeks advance notice. I explained that the group was hostless at
the last minute.

We only have room for 20 offsite people. Since the last meeting had
only 9 attending I felt okay to offer an invite to y'all. Please
please please rsvp today, preferably by this afternoon..

Anyone attending MUST show a photo id at the security desk on the 3rd
floor to be allowed entry. Drivers license, passport etc.
