quick mini-conference update.

[C. Scott Ananian]

Hey, folks.  I've been sick for the past two days, so I apologize for
not doing as much mini-conference planning as I might have.

We're still on for tomorrow and Friday, at 1cc, although our
mini-conference might be somewhat scaled down from its original
proposal -- I certainly won't be able to do as many presentations as I
might have liked to, although I hope that the rest of you have had
some chance to organize your thoughts in preparation, despite my
silence.

I fully support the plans for a proper *real* conference, as someone
proposed for the end of May, but I still think this mini-conference
will be useful.  We can't really afford to wait two months to decide
what the 4 full-time developers at 1cc will work on, so the
mini-conference will be useful even if it's just us 4 in a room.  I'd
appreciate help planning a "real" conference for later.

I'll be posting another message later with a tentative schedule for
thurs/fri talks.  Please let me know privately (if you haven't
already) whether you've got time constraints.  Also, I'm not certain
I've got someone who's committed to helping out with audio/video
recording: I'll use Record on the XO if I need to, but we all know
what that looks like; it might not be the most pleasant to watch.
Also I'll need to hack out Record's time limit (trac #4983).

Again, my apologies for the slip-shod organization, but I hope even
informal meetings will be useful (especially if we can post
recordings).
