Hi Paul,

Sorry for the delayed response... I haven't gone through my email
since having a bike accident last week (leaving me, temporarily, one
arm short). Anyways, awesome news!

I'd be happy to do a presentation on basic CRUD in Django.

To make sure I'm clear, a venue is needed for all day Sunday?

As far as sponsorships go, I can't think of any companies to approach,
but I'd kick in $200 towards an honorarium/expenses.

Sounds good to me. I agree that vandjango does roll off the tongue
better than Django-Van (and vandjango would be easier to logo-fy). ^_^

Cheers,
