Edit: Event pictures and comments start here
August 20th in the usual place. (up the mountain in Victoria, BC out in the forest at my place of residence/workplace)
Being #8 we keep getting more organized each year.
Some people have been making this a weekend long affair so we expect some people to arrive Friday night and not leave till Sunday.
People camp, stretch out on the deck, or claim floor space in the living room.

Why does it sound more like aHi Dave,
I hope to be able to attend and maybe I'll grab one or two or... others as well.
I hope to have a surprise for Don the Doorman! (Think APTS)
Best Regards,
TerryO
threat than a "surprise"!
Looking forward to seeing everyone.
Best, Don
I am wondering if these might be the right ones to bring this year? You guys need something big and manly outside right? (Other than Terry O of course)
Hi Cal,
Those hearing aids look uncomfordable! (yes, it's a brand new word)
Will you be arriving in your 1/2 ton Tardis?
Best Regards,
Terry

Does that mean you are coming early to help Barry, Gregg, Daniel & myself do the last minute tidying before the event

When do you do "the last minute tidying?"
Last year I seem to remember disassembling computers, etc., for some reason.

Scribed on the calendar!
If the floor has been claimed, I call Duo's fold-a-couch
(pending permission)
I should have a Dyna-something test bed amp for show (probably a DynaMutt driver board or maybe a Koren Local Hero) as well as a DIYTube.com Budgie phono stage.
Cheers!

LinuxCon North America 2011
Just so as everyone knows: LinuxCon North America 2011 (Linux is 20 years old!) will be held August 17 - 19, 2011 at the Hyatt Regency in Vancouver. So there may be some contention for hotel accommodations in the overlap. Book early, in other words...

Please don't confuse us with the "Big Smoke".
The event is on on Vancouver Island, Vancouver is across the pond , a drive, a ferry wait, and then about 2 hours on a lovely ferry ride away, and then another drive, so no contention. On average 2 people a year stay in motel/hotels.
