Hi --
Just a quick note. As part of the open-source conference OSCON, Linux Fund has invited developers and users of the gEDA Toolset to a party! The party details are here:
http://www.linuxfund.org/press/anniversary/
As you probably know, Linux Fund has established a project to gather donations so that various usability improvements may be built into gEDA/PCB. This is a high-profile project which we hope will pave the way to improving uptake of gEDA with all users, but particularly amongst newbies.
I believe a few invitations to the LF party were already sent privately to folks who have contributed both to LF and to PCB and are in the Silicon Valley area. Thank you to those contributors!
It would be nice to see other gEDA fellow travelers go to the party. The event is in San Jose from July 20 -- 24. You'll have the chance to meet other gEDA users, as well as be exposed to a larger F/OSS ecosystem.
Details about OSCON are here:

FWIW, I'm not going since it's 3000 miles away from me. :-( But if you're a Silicon Valley local (or will be there for some reason), and are interested in attending, drop me an e-mail (sdb (AT) cloud9 (DOT) net) and I'll put you in touch with the relevant people.
Cheers,
Stuart
