Re: "Write the Docs" conference in Portland, April 8-9

[Lois Patterson <loisrpatterson -at- gmail -dot- com>]

The three conference founders are all github people, and it's clear they
have a strong interest in open-source programming. This looks like a great
conference to attend if you want to meet different people and hear about
different subjects than at a typical documentation conference (all of which
I love too). I am going to try to go! Thanks to Ryan for pointing this out.
