[sudo-discuss] throwback Thursday: sudoroom weekend at chez hack

[Autonomous]

I have decided to withdraw my offer of hosting Chez Hack 2.0 at Woodlands.

Romy I agree that Chez Hack was a wonderful experience. But at this point
it seems like it was a one-off event and is not likely going to be the same
experience the second time around.
