Umm, I'll step forward to try to get something put together if no one else wants to. I can check around downtown (or along the light rail system which runs in front of the convention center) for a restaurant that can take a group that week. Restaurants like to have some idea of how many people might show up, so if you email me to let me know if you might be interested, I can put together a rough tally. Also which night to people prefer? I haven't seen a detailed schedule yet so I don't have a preference yet... I'll try to come up with a list of possible eating establishments by monday and we can vote on it.

This sounds good. I tried to get a room for a session after the main ones on Tuesday or Thursday, but the conference center closes after 7pm. Also the other evenings have Apple arranged evening events. So it does not look like we could make a normal BOF session at the conference center. What I suggest is that we could meet in the DTS Feedback Forum room on Tuesday evening after it ends (about 7.30pm), and eventually go to a restaurant or something similar. The DTS bashing session would be a natural meeting point, or what :-)? I'm interested to go somewhere, with the option of maybe some problems back home (my wife's having a kid any day).

Isn't there a "real" English pub somewhere close by, with authentic-style

Cute :).
At least one or two of the days, I'll probably be wearing one of my tasteful
"Visix: Software From Hell" T-shirts... (gray with fluorescent orange
design). I'm also quite tall, and have been told I'm hard to miss. I've
never been sure whether or not that's a compliment, but there it is,
for what it's worth :).
