[CREATE] LGM 2009 - Montréal - May 6-7-8-9

[Nathan Willis]

I just wanted to add a word about media sponsorship -- namely, don't
overlook it when drawing up lists of potential donors/sponsors.  Last year
we managed to put one article about the meeting on Linux.com, but a
sponsored ad "buy" on the other SourceForge sites (Slashdot, Freshmeat,
SF.net) in advance would reach considerably more eyes.

Thanks,
Nate
