So in the absence of a New Years convention this past year, I am working to set something up so that there will be one at the end of this year/beginning of next in the Portland area.
To this effect I need to poll people to see two things:
1) Is there an interest in a New Years convention.
2) If this happens would you rather it be a few days before New Years, so that it falls on a weekend OR on New Years even though that'd make it happen Monday into Tuesday.
