The time for the developer’s get-together is almost upon us. For those that didn’t read before, the developer team is putting together a face-to-face meeting of the minds in Copenhagen, Denmark over the weekend of Sept. 8, 2007. Most of the plans are set, but we have one issue: money.

Originally, we thought we would be able to cover expenses without looking to the community for funding. However, it’s down to the wire for buying plane tickets and several people need some help… in the very near future.

Given the trends of buying plane tickets, we have about 10 days or so before prices skyrocket. As it stands, we need roughly US$1000 before the 15th of August. That’s 10 days from today. The sooner we can get it together, the better. Any money left over after buying tickets will go into a pot to help the group pay for any additional expenses they might have.

Donating is easy. Click on the donation link on the left hand side of this page. All donations are handled through paypal. Remember, donations are not tax deductable.

Everyone who donates will get their name put up on this page and also the main donations page… and I’ll keep a running tally of how much was donated. If you’d rather be anonymous, just say so in the paypal donation comments. Also, advertising options or official get-together sponsorship is available if you’re interested.

For those of you interested in the event itself, we (at least me, I’m a photography nut) will be posting pictures on flickr each day and we will also post any details about discussions as we go. We’re going to try and plan a schedule before hand, and will post that as soon as we possible.

Help us make this a successful meeting and give the developer’s morale a nice shot in the arm! Thanks!
