Hey all,

Update from the Sudo Room meeting tonight, it looks like we're in favor of hosting Oct 11-12, and I'll be checking in with the rest of The Omni Collective tomorrow night to confirm there are no other conflicting events. 

Please holler if there are any issues with this date/arrangement!

I think this might be ideal for both time to prep, low overhead, and use of the big beautiful ballroom!

I'd opt for an earlier date, if those dates work for others.  Either of
the earlier weekends (4th & 5th  or  11th & 12th) work for me.
