Hey all, and sorry about some delaying in replying.

I'm currently tentatively planning to visit Boston that weekend for
LibrePlanet, so we shouldn't count directly on me. However, I suspect that
Geoffrey Thomas and other SF-based volunteers will be able to make the
event happen. Shauna, you mentioned there are other SF-based people who are
available; is that Geoffrey in particular?

I am very happy to work with that crew in the months leading up to the
event to train a powerful SF/Bay Area-based OpenHatch teaching force. (-:

Katherine, for the honorarium question, we're hopeful for a $500 honorarium
to offset the costs of organizing these events, and will be grateful for
any funds that might be possible.
