If it is running concurrent with Plone Boot Camps, then it would be the 
same dates as Plone Boot Camp:

http://trizpug.org/boot-camp/pbc4/
http://trizpug.org/boot-camp/pbc4/pbc4-event
http://trizpug.org/boot-camp/pbc4/pbc4tech-event

I assume the best time would be the second week during Advanced Plone 
Boot Camp. It would be kind of not so great to go to Advanced Plone Boot 
Camp without knowing at least a little Python, anyway. Regular Plone 
Boot Camp: no Python required.

That sounds like a reasonable number for TriZPUGers, if not less 
expensive. I'm of the opinion that community events should be super low 
cost, if not no cost, and cater to as many people as possible. I'm 
simply trying to raise big sprint money again.

Sorry. Didn't see the off-list warning. *Normally* I'm not that crass in 
  forwarding off-list mail. :)

Re: off-list: Re: PyCamp concurrent with Plone Boot Camp

Selfishly speaking, I'd like to attend both Plone 3 Bootcamp and PyCamp
2008.  Yet the purpose of PyCamp is to acquaint people with Python, so I
can understand if holding it concurrent with Plone 3 PBC makes more
sense.  In either case, I'm out of town 28th and 29th (Mon-Tues of PBC).
In any case, put me down as a yes for PyCamp if it is held the week of
7-28 to 8-01 and a no if it is concurrent with Plone3 techniques.

The purpose in holding it concurrently is that is the only time in the 
2008 UNC academic calendar year where we can get a classroom for a week.

If it weren't for that, it would be my preference to do it some other 
time rather than try to run a two ring circus.

If anyone at Duke or NCSU has a *suitable* classroom to do it in at 
another time at least four months in advance, I'm all ears. I've asked 
this several time and been told by different people it might be 
possible. But I've never gotten anything definite. So, here we are.

Great!  If a space and time open up, I'd be happy to not only attend,
but pitch in to help with PyCamp.
