Hello everyone,
The LA contingency fought the good fight, but alas it was not meant to be
for #c4l15. The remaining proposal from the Portland contingency[1] still
stands, and the Portland folks are ready to start planning.
Congratulations to Portland, and we'll see you there in 2015!
Thanks,
Becky
