Hi there,

This is exciting to see some KDE representation at some US based events!  I
live in the Washington DC area and *might* be able to get to one or both of
these events to help out. Please keep me in the loop in your planning
communications.  And is there a website up yet for this fossCon in NY that
has details?

Also, one thing I can do for sure is help you promote these events online
with blog entries as Lydia mentioned.

Justin
