Unlikely, unfortunately, in that he has balked in the past unless user's
groups change their name to *** GNU/Linux Users Group.   I personally
will resign my post on the Steering Committee before doing such a 
stupid, inane thing. (Can you tell where I stand on that issue? :-)

It would be interesting to hear him speak, though.  I'd rather
hear Bruce Perens, personally though.

Your post came through perfectly.

Cheers,

 This would be a very good time to hang out with the Open Source 
 people, before they get formally reclassified as a national security 
 threat. -- Bruce Sterling
