The plan is under way, and the aim is to make it happen on August 25 and 26 2006. We're aiming for a place near the beach (or with proper pool access for everyone) to take advantage of the sunny mid-summer weather. If you've never been to Portugal, get ready for some California-like weather (which is great, we know). Anyway, make sure you save a couple of days off your summer and come join us.

If you've never been to a BarCamp (or, heck, never heard of it before), see the Rules of BarCamp and get in touch with us by dropping an email at barcamp@webreakstuff.com - we'll get back to you in a snap (no, really).
