Thanks for all the feedback regarding International participation.  I will see what I can do right around the conference once that is announced.

It would be broader than Sakai, but we could bookend it with some Sakai meetings.  So folks at Michigan want to help me find some real funding from several sources to support food, perhaps some cool speakers, and possibly even support for travel for a few folks.
