Hi folks
We just got back from NYC where we went to the 217 planning
meeting on Mondays night. There were
nearly 100 people there.
The information re: transportation and housing has already
gone out in an email forwarded by Noah (and that was the break out group Carolyn
went to)
Other stuff we picked up (which we didn’t see any other
emails or notifications on yet)
Re: Sat & Sun see http://s17nyc.org/schedule/ for a
short vision
