Hi, Eric, No decision yet.  I suspect that LGM is probably the preferred venue, but I don't really have enough "data" to back that assumption.  So if a few more people want to voice their preference, then I promise to actually do something.  Sorry, I've been completely swamped with other projects, but if people want to help me out by quickly responding to the little survey below, then I think we can move things forward quite quickly :-) ============================================= 2009 TEXT LAYOUT AND TYPOGRAPHY WORKSHOP / MEETING SURVEY ============================================= (1) VENUE.  I PREFER THE FOLLOWING VENUE:      [ ]  LGM in Montreál  6-9 May 2009 ( <a href="http://www.libregraphicsmeeting.org/2009/" target="_blank">http://www.libregraphicsmeeting.org/2009/</a> )      [ ]  Linux Found.

I will be happy to take the initial lead in organizing an agenda and reserving space with the Collaboration Summit folks if I hear back from interested folks.  In order to reserve space, I need to get some kind of ballpark head count, so respond if you are interested. Ideally I'd like to be able to communicate back to the organizers next week so we can reserve space in a timely manner. Best Wishes -- Ed Trager </blockquote> </div></div></blockquote></div>
