Mini-DO II - EWR / NYC Folks!
This event will indeed take place as scheduled, unfortunately without our friend vincom. He and I and a few others were working on the event details, and I know he was really looking forward to it. He would absolutely want us to get together with good food, good drink, and good company.
If you are planning on attending and your name is not on the list below please PM me so we can get an accurate headcount.

I thought cross posting wasnt allowed? The reason I posted here was because while this is a regional DO, its still somewhat a CO-centric one...
Just want to make sure I'm following the rules
