Second CKAN Package Party?

Today the number of packages on CKAN passed the 200 mark:

   http://blog.okfn.org/2008/06/17/over-200-packages-on-ckan/

It would be great to have another package party sometime in the
not-too-distant future to try and keep the ball rolling. I've created a
page for this here:

   http://okfn.org/wiki/CkanPackageParty/2

What do people think about dates? Does later in June or July suit? If
there was enough interest, I thought it could be fun for people near each
other to meet somewhere with wifi and drinks, and to co-ordinate with
other interested parties online!

I've also created a page on the wiki for notes about CKAN that don't yet
seem to have a home, including a list of places to look for packages to
add and a list of suggestions for new features:

This is great news. We now have 212!

A big +1 on this. I've already signed up. We should probably use doodle 
(or similar) to start picking some dates.

Do you have plans for another London meetup? Perhaps we could sync it 
with that? (I'm going to be down in London around the 10th/11th of 
July). If a physical meetup does not work out we can always do a virtual 
package-party based around irc as we did last time.

Is there anyone else interested in having a go at registering some more 
packages? If so - please add your name to the wiki list!

It could also be really useful to use the session to gather feedback 
about the process of adding things, suggestions for new developments and 
so on.
