Two problems:  Greg Palmer promised 12 roadies to help RH set up their
booth -- turns out Mr Palmer had only 12 _total_, and 6 were loaned out to
Informix.  Second, many of the machines drop-shipped from Dell didn't
work.

This info comes second hand from a KULUA member that was there with ESR,
so don't quote me.

KULUA's going to have a raucous dinner this Friday night with Emmett of
/. in Lawrence.  We're also going to try and Shanghai some of the other
notables at the convo.

Send me a private email if you'd like to be included.
