Subject: FREE Apache Subversion Meetup: Thursday, November 4, at ApacheCon
 NA in Atlanta, GA

For those who don't know, ApacheCon North America comes to Atlanta, GA,
November 1-5 this year.  You can find out more about the conference via the
official conference website at http://na.apachecon.com/c/acna2010/.
In addition to a full slate of scheduled presentations, talks, training
sessions, etc., the ApacheCon organizers are again offering slots for
MeetUps, which are somewhat less formal gatherings organized by a particular
project's membership for the purpose of discussing the project itself with,
ideally, a diverse group of participants.  Oh, and they're free of charge to
everyone -- you needn't even be a conference attendee to come to the Meetups!

CollabNet is sponsoring an Apache Subversion Meetup at ApacheCon NA this
year, currently scheduled for Thursday evening (Nov. 4).  I'll be there, and
I'd love to see as many of you as possible -- devs and users alike -- at the
event.  For the sake of efficiency, it's probably best to proceed with a
pre-determined agenda, but that agenda is wide open to brief (15-minutes or
less) presentations or discussion topics about anything Subversion-related
(technical, social, or otherwise), to be offered by anyone who is willing
and able to do so.  The idea here is to use this two-hour window for
whatever purposes best suit the project.  And if we can do so while enjoying
each other's company at a social level, too, bonus!

The official ApacheCon NA 2010 Meetups page is here:

	http://wiki.apache.org/apachecon/ApacheMeetupsNa10

There, you can learn more about what the Meetups tend to look like, what
other Meetups are planned for this years conference, and so on.  You'll also
find a link to the Subversion Meetup wiki page:

	http://subversion.open.collab.net/wiki/ApacheConNA2010Meetup

I've populated that page with some information and some possible topics of
interest.  If you want to present on or lead the discussion about one of
those, feel free to claim it.  Got a new idea?  Add it.  We've got about a
month to work out the details here.

See you all in Atlanta!
