Hi everyone,

First, I want to thank everyone from the netsquared community for all of their support.  We are very excited and appreciative of this opportunity and have been thinking, writing, brainstorming, discussing, informational-interviewing, and working hard in preparation.  As we enter the two weeks before the conference, I wanted to share with you all that we are doing to prepare for conference and to get your feedback and ideas!

Just finished writing an agenda for our Advisory Council meeting on this coming Saturday (May 19th)-  a great group of people providing advice, guidance, and support as we get ready.  They will be doing a final review of our pitch.  I just need to find an office space in New York City to give this meeting a good professional setting.  All of our potential places fell through, so called about 15 places today!  Also working to get a good cheap teleconference set-up that can call CA and Swaziland to get everyone linked in together.  I'll keep you up-to-date and send me any ideas you have!

Thanks again for all of your support - and as we say in Swaziland "Siyabonga kahulu!" - thank you very much!
