Thanx Paul. I did think you had made it perfectly clear.  I was less
clear about my willingness to participate the organization of SFD this
year.

Having a venue is the most important part of SFD that's missing. As an
organization even less than "non-profit", but rather "no-money", a
Free-As-In-Gratis venue is important. So, is there anyone on the list
who is able to offer a venue? I'd really like to share with the Linux
Conference, if possible.

I expect we can scratch up some SFD presentations once a venue is
established. But if Colin is only looking for one more presentation I
can do the "What is Software Freedom" presentation and my best RMS
impression.
