I'm a UBC student with a lot of ridiculous assignments to hand in. Rather than sign up and have to flake out at the last moment (ala Drupal Con), I may show up at the last minute.
FYI - I just posted a few comments on my (currently) getto blog. Sometimes you just have to focus on the sites that pay the bills :)
I enjoyed the meeting and look forward to the next. This is tagged as VANDUG and Drupal, so it should get looked over by Techorati soon and show up at Drupal.org soon (I think?).
