[CoLoCo] Ubuntu 11.10 Release Party!

[David Overcash]

Yeah - I hear you Neal. FWIW - I'm with you, and would love a quieter
environment - but it's really difficult to find an accommodating location,
with food and drinks, that also has wireless internet, and is cheap ( read:
free ).  As we have no budget, I'm stuck finding places that are willing to
let us book based on us promising to spend a particular amount in food/drink
( usually around $400 or $500 ).

Hanson's has been really gracious to us in the past, more or less waiving
what I'm signing in committing to spend in food / drink because we treat
their staff so well and ( apparently ) are all pretty good tippers ( so keep
up the good work guys! ).

Again - I haven't officially booked this yet - but will do so in the next
week or so unless I can find a better place.  If anyone has any suggestions
- I'd really appreciate you doing some legwork and calling the place to see
what their room reservation policy is before forwarding it to the list- as
much as I'd love to hunt down details on a few dozen places, I figure
crowd-sourcing is the smart way to tackle that.  :)

Cheers,
David
