first come first serve - Since I'm not going to be making it to Seattle, I will gladly donate my conference slot to whoever 1) can make it and 2) e-mails me first @ [log in to unmask]

Last minute urgent business duties call, alas.  I have alerted the code4libcon e-mail list as well.

However, I will make myself available to call/Skype/IRC in and do a bit of facilitation and contribute what I can to the get-together.  I think it will be a useful/productive time slot for folks to discuss Solr experiences, challenges, and future needs, so please don't worry about me not being physically there, and take the opportunity to make it an interactive session where everyone introduces themselves and their projects and delves into the gory details of Solr experiences.
