RFC: Sept-Oct 2007 Meetings and Release party.

[Hal Wilke]

Not sure what everybody else's thoughts are, but my wife is considering
coming, and considering bringing our 2.5 year old daughter.  Not sure if
people are interested in a family friendly meeting place or an adults only
meeting place.  If it's an adults only gathering, I'm sure we could con some
grandparents into watching Emma for the evening.  We are not drinkers, so
our standard hang outs are coffee shops, and dinner out is always fun.  I
would also be happy to contribute to a pot luck if someone wanted to host
it.  (That about covers all of my suggestions.)

Looking forward to meeting everybody in person.
