Maybe you took it as it was something personal or bad, but the thing is that I 
happen to Live in Argentina, Buenos Aires, Cap. Fed. ... the very same place 
the BSDday is supposed to take place .. and maybe .. if they have the right 
answers to those questions, I could pitch in ... a lot btw ... and get others 
to pitch in too ...

Now, I know that they still have two months to the event, but I also know that 
my job doesn't allow me to have real spare time (let alone the wife and the 
kids...). I may be of help, today, tomorrow, the next week, who knows? .. But 
I _do_ know, that I can't compromise my word without at least a 3 weeks in 
advanced window .. 

So ... the fact that the event is still two months away is a plus for me .. 
that was why I went in "hard" on them ...

Sorry if I was misunderstood.
