I thought I'd pass on the latest about where we're at with sponsors
and speakers for CodeMash.

Microsoft is our first official sponsor: they stepped up again this
year with an Adamantium sponsor level. CompuWare returns for a second
year of sponsorship as well with a Gold sponsorship. We're happy to
have both Microsoft and CompuWare on board again, and we thank them
for their support of this great event!

Secondly, and more importantly to all folks interested, we've been
getting a metric cr@pload of great submissions for sessions. I can
honestly say that the content for v2.0.0.8 will be even better than
what we had for v2.0.0.7 -- and I was pretty amazed at what we had for
our first-ever event.

Jason Gilmore and Dianne Marsh, our speaker committee, plan to have
the schedule released on 7 November. We may try to get them to crack
loose a few announcements on top sessions earlier just to tease
everyone a bit...

Along those same lines, we're finalizing keynoters -- and you'll see
new faces for the keynotes!
