[Ubuntu Chicago] Fwd: Flourish 2008

[Samir Faci]

Yeah, I know.. sorry about that.

The schedule is still up in the air but we'll have events going most of the
day on Friday and Saturday starting somewhere around noon and ending
(including post-flourish event like the networking social etc) to around 8
or so in the evening.
