Where is your stat page?  I know I mention you and BSDCan 
parenthetically on a regular basis in DN EZine. . . the last time with 
the Kirk/Eric meeting . . . my articles are always full of urls. . .

DN EZine is a big referrer for us. . . besides all the planted porn 
crap.

I think this conference will be critical.  Those who went last year 
were taking a chance to some extent.  There was no history to it.  Now 
people know it's a real and great conference.

This past May six of us came, although one was from DC. . . We had a 
blast, particularly at the bars at night. . . <g>.  Some pictures are 
online at the NYCBUG gallery.

For the next conference, we should be pulling a lot more people. . 
.There should be no reason why 20 or so people don't go from NYC.

Maybe someone should volunteer to start collecting names of those 
interested, starting at the holiday party?  Volunteers?

I can resetup the BSDCan list on mailman. . .
