Greetings everyone!

I have been working on Asterisk since some time in 2004.  I was the 
maintainer of the 1.0 branch of Asterisk before 1.2 was released.  I 
recently graduated from Clemson University, located in South Carolina, 
and began working on Asterisk as a full-time job for Digium in January 
of this year.  So, I will be coming with the rest of the Digium 
developers from Huntsville, Alabama.

I have been to Atlanta many times, but not to Georgia Tech.  As far as 
ideas for group events go, I would really like to go to to Fogo de Chau 
(http://www.fogodechao.com/) for a meal.  Also, it looks like the 
Atlanta Braves will have Baseball games while we are there.  May 22-24 
are games against the NY Mets and the 25-27 are against the Philadelphia 
Phillies.

I'm looking forward to the event!
