Travel: OSCON 2006

Jacob's post reminded me to mention that I'm joining the masses heading off to OSCON next week in Portland. Looking forward to catching up with some old friends and meeting some people who I only currently know through mailing lists. (That I live in the same city as celebrity speaker Jeff and see him less than once a year is pathetic. Maybe Portland will be our 2006 visit.)
I haven't attended this conference before, mostly because if I'm going to travel all the way to North America, OLS is around the same time and a lot cheaper. This year, it's time to splash out and fill in one of the missing conferences on my list of "conferences to attend before I die". So, flights, hotel, registration all booked. Laptop bits and pieces located. Need to remember to charge the camera battery and I'm set (I travel enough that I can just put my hand on the plastic baggie with the right currency in it, the right power plug converters, the travel bag, etc; a bit sad, really).
