FYI -

I am currently working at an office building at Park Place in San Mateo, just around the corner as it were from the exhibition center. For any in-person physical-ish stuff getting ready for the actual event, I can literally "just walk over" there. It's about 1,050 meters door-to-door.

I know that large parts of the prep work are not onsite, but I am certainly here as a resource nearby once onsite starts.

First: Save the dates for Maker Faire Bay Area: May 19 & 20 2012

Ok, now that's out of the way... Phoebe and I have been nominally in charge of the WMF booth for the last few years.  Not that we both don't LOVE Maker Faire and love every second we are there... but it's exhausting... and we need some time off.  So before we get too close to Maker Faire, Phoebe and I are officially handing off the reigns to "The List" (IE You guys and gals).  We'd love for someone to speak up and take charge of the Maker Faire booth organization this year.  We're happy to help out (as normal people), but someone else needs to take the lead.

If you're interested in Maker Faire (or trying to figure out what the heck I'm talking about) please see:

So far as I can tell, Maker registration is not open yet. So we've still got time to make plans and make them good!
