Brian Jamison [brian@opensourcery.com] from 24.21.80.240 is currently editing this page but has been for more than five minutes (really 7 minutes). This means it's possible that they clicked 'Edit' without ever actually following through on an 'Update'. Do you want to steal the edit lock from this person? This may cause the other person's changes to be lost.
Update 04/29/2007: CubeSpace cannot accommodate KidBarCamp. An alternative location will have to be found for this session.
