Good list. Add Alan Cox, Donald Knuth and a host of others.
I think it would be cool to get Ian Murdock to come in with his long-time
Linux work and Progeny coming out just a few months prior to the 10th
anniv, that would be pretty cool.

If so, we need people to step forward and help us make that happen. Lots
that needs to happen for that!

Let's make it a semi-SIG after the meeting Thu.

I will post info there.

Good idea. Is there a public irc server we can use? Would we prefer to ask
Kimi to host irc for us?

How about something like "LinuxBirthday.org" or something. We could make
this an annual event. Actually, I think this would be an event to pass on
to somewhere besides Phoenix. Sep/Okt isn't the best part of the year in
Phoenix :). Then again, it'd coincide with Oktoberfest once in a while :).

I've never seen rms. I would like to. I think it would be great to bring
him to Phoenix. However he is definitely the wrong person for a
"Linux" celebration. Just as Mr. *BSD ( whoever he is ) would be.
Linus, Alan Cox, you and your cohorts at MV are all better for this
particular event, IDHO[1]
