I'll be attending my first
I'll be attending my first Seattle event this month since I'll be in the area for a week or so. I'd be happy to give a little demo on using the flag module and how we used it for session voting on the camp website for DrupalCampLA (http://2009.drupalcampla.com)
Glad to have you Blake
I would love to hear about the flag module on that site.

Co-working suggestion
There is a docs sprint going on at the same time as co-working, maybe we could focus on that for those who are coming?
I'll be sprinting...
More information about the doc sprint today 4-6pm: http://drupal.org/node/540308
All are definitely welcome to come and join in! I am one of the organizers for these doc sprints, and I plan to be at the co-working today, sprinting, if anyone wants some assistance.
Let's have Blake talk about
Let's have Blake talk about flag module as one of our lightning talks.
I have some lightning talks too.
I setup facebook connect for the first time, so I thought I might talk about that.
Plus I found another interesting module which I didn't end up using but it's pretty freakin' cool. It's called String Overrides: http://drupal.org/project/stringoverrides

I'll be attending my first meeting as well...
I just started working with Drupal... building sites for a couple non-profits. I'm interested to hear what "heyrocker" has to say about rich media repositories. I've worked with large media libraries on commercial and proprietary software for about 6 years (at Getty Images) and more recently with Alfresco (open source).
Looking forward to meeting you all!
Pete

I might be able to make it tomorrow. If I'm there, I'll do a quick intro to my latest module and probably babel about the latest changes in boost.
