We've picked the only time that doesn't conflict with vendor events, Monday evening just after the Opening Gala. Pete's is nearby -- a short walk away. As in previous years, the primary attraction is the conversations with other attendees. We will supplement this with some fun professional entertainment: "Dueling Pianos". We will have drinks and snacks, along with a few give-aways There will be a short greeting by the sponsors somewhere around 10pm (anytime from 9:45 to 10:15pm) -- try to be there by then.
