Hello,

PyTexas is nigh!

The fun starts Fri afternoon/evening with the swarm of volunteers who
show up and help with the setup...right?  If you are one of those
volunteers, please *reply to this email*  so I know who you are and
what time you plan to arrive (4pm is most likely a good time to start
showing up).

I'm expecting over 40 volunteers based on registration results, so I'm
hopeful we'll have all the help we can need.

Join us! It'll be fun! Here is a small sampling of the stuff I'd like
to get help doing on Fri:

* putting up signs around the area
* test wifi
* locate printer
* running power strips and taping down cables with gaffer
* possibly buy more power strips
* setup of A/V equipment
* taking all the chairs/desks out of the room planned for snacks/sponsor tables
* placing sponsor tables and snack tables
* stuffing swag bags
* putting gaffer tape on floor in hallway to indicate plans for Sat
morning hallway table setup
* taping schedule grid to the wall
* organize registration materials
* put out swag
* organize prizes
* pick up A/V crew at airport
* make sure every pre-registered attendee has a t-shirt reserved,
along with the sponsor reserved shirts.
* eat dinner...not sure the plan on that

I'm still working out the details of what happens when, but currently
it looks like 4pm will be a good time for people to start showing up.
I'll be there much earlier in the afternoon getting prepared.

To those of you who reply, I will respond with further info.
