Its a long flight from the west coast of the US. > Didn't Johannes mention that he will be in US in October? He sometimes makes trips to DC for some reason or another. But maybe October he was thinking of the GSoC mentor summit? Its held here in Mountain View, CA. Not too far from Portland, relatively speaking. But if he's here in October I'm not sure he'd want to be here again in say November. Not enough time between flights to stretch the legs out again. ;-) -- Shawn.
