[OpenID] TransparencyCamp and OpenID (U)

[Brett McDowell]

I'm about to have my call with these folks about co-hosting such a  
kick-off event (in Washington DC).  What is this community's gut feel  
for timing?  Is there an urgency here that would drive us to do this  
soon... like early April.  Or do folks need more time to arrange  
travel, etc.?

Before or after RSA (April 20th)?

Before or after IIW (May 18)?
