<-- Back to BarCampVancouver2007

Important Update Thursday, August 16th 2007

At the last BarCamp Vancouver organizers meeting, we counted our budget, checked Workspace's fire regulations, mixed our metaphors, crossed our ayes and dotted our teas.

The good news is that we can fit everyone for Saturday - including people who were on the waiting list as of 17:00 PDT on Thursday, August 16th.

If Workspace gets too full, then we can borrow some space from Bryght (who has their office right next to Workspace)

Note that we still only have 120 T-shirts and might run out of food (in which case, we will run out to get more.)
