I think they said there were about 300 people here. I was told that there are some regular planners who could help with the programming & scholarships, they need locals to find a venue (often a college) and place for receptions, scope out the hotel situation & public transit. And the Foundation helps out with funding, I'm sure.
And Vancouver is a possibility!

I'd certainly be in, though this is not necessarily the time of year people would most want to be in Seattle.
How many people "on the ground" do you think it requires? How big is this year's conference?

People attending from the NW include SounderBruce, Another Believer, RageSoss, & Peaceray, so I suggest taking with some of us. Let us not forget Vancouver, BC as well!
