-Joseph,
I still have some 11.10 disks left, but the ordering has not opened up for
the 12.04 disks yet. However, I do want to stress that we should try to
save as many of the 12.04 disks as possible for this year's OhioLinux Fest.
& UbuCon! I would be happy to help you get some disks for the street fair,
just get a hold of me in private, Jon@xxxxxxxxxxxx.

-Stephen,
Sounds like you're pretty on top of it for this release, would you be
interested, willing, & able to take charge of the Northern/Northeastern
Ohio?!

Here's a thought, what do you guys think about trying have multiple release
parties this year so that we can all try to make the different ones??

-Everybody else,
What are you planning for the 12.04 release, & what would you like to do???
I was thinking that in Columbus we could do an event at the Columbus Public
Library's Main Branch in downtown again, or maybe an event else where in
town, or perhaps maybe even a couple of events here at multiple locations
to help get the LoCo some more exposure.

Any thoughts, suggestions, or other ideas???
