[notacon-announce] First speakers listed and Blockparty invitation released!

[Jodie "Tyger" Schneider]

It's been awhile since an email went out to this list!  Remember, we have an 
rss feed for news items at http://notacon.org/rss.xml.  I don't always 
remember to spam you all when I put up new news.

The latest scoop:

The first speakers for Notacon and Blockparty have been posted on the 
speaker page (http://www.notacon.org/speakers.html).  The Notacon page 
includes the Blockparty speaker list for easy lookup.

Remember, you can still submit a proposal (http://www.notacon.org/cfp.html) 
until January 31, 2008.   We also finally confirmed the booking link with 
the Holiday Inn Select City Centre Lakeside, and you can reserve your room 
on the Travel page. (http://www.notacon.org/travel.html)  Don't forget to 
preregister as well! (http://www.notacon.org/prereg.html)

On December 23rd, the invitation for Blockparty 2008 premiered at the 
Ultimate Meeting 2007 and got 6th place in the high-end demo category.  It 
can be downloaded from the Blockparty site.

with the creation of this invite!

See you in April.
