I’m pleased to announce BarCampRDU 2007. This one-day unconference will be held August 2, 2007 at the Red Hat headquarters in Raleigh, NC. Please note – this is an updated date. The purpose of this message is to act as a “save the date” and solicitation for those interested in sponsoring BarCamp.
About sponsorships:
In just one week, BarCampRDU has fulfilled almost 50% of its sponsorship goals. However, we still have $2600 outstanding that we need pledged. If your company would like to sponsor BarCampRDU, please contact Fred Stutzman at fred@metalab.unc.edu. The minimum sponsorship is $300.
About registration:
Registration for BarCampRDU will be announced far in advance this summer. It will occur on the wiki, just like last year, and it will be first-come-first-served. We’ll have a waitlist and we anticipate allowing 150-175 attendees.
Organizers committee:
If you’d like to join the organizing committee of BarCampRDU, please contact Fred Stutzman at fred@metalab.unc.edu. The organizing committee meets periodically and ensures that tasks are completed for BarCamp. Please note, being on the organizing committee is not a nominal position – it requires significant work, so please only volunteer if you can commit to this effort.
I’m very excited to announce this event. With a location and sponsors, we’re well on our way to another very successful BarCamp. With the support of the community, organizers, volunteers and sponsors, I’m positive we’re going to have a great event.

For a second year in a row Barcamp is scheduled on a weekend I can’t come! :-( You really know how to pick ‘em, Fred.
Bwa ha ha! My secretly engineered “conflict” at RedHat saves the day. ;-)
Sorry for your inconvenience, but looking forward to putting the new date in my calendar…
