Sure,<div>This is an open hacker/creative space membership driven but welcoming of EVERYONE so you are welcome to run whatever kind of record you want to keep as a thread on this list which I will simply share with whomever I contact that way you will have an ongoing "live" record and all those that are subscribed to the list will see it as well. I suggest using the same thread and posting a fresh update maybe once a week or couple of weeks until the target date. Requesting R.S.V.P. via putting whatever software you like on the thread is great. Be mindful that we DO NOT REQUIRE it to attend events here but I do understand your wanting to keep a record. </div>
<div>I will also forward this to Grant Bowman who works with Partimus and is involved with and Reps Ubuntu in the Bay Area. If you are interested in going into schools and teaching and doing workshops he will be an excellent contact for this. I will also see about schools that would like to have you. These will be more controlled environments for you numbers (attendance) wise. Of course you are welcome to offer as many workshops and events at Noisebridge as you like as well. If you haven't already, put up threads on:</div>

Hi Maestro,<br>
<br>
That sounds brilliant. Could we pencil in holding an event on Saturday<br>
29th September?<br>
<br>
If you want to start publicising this to your members that would be<br>
great. As soon as the final details are sorted for the trip we are<br>
going to heavily publicise it to the wider RaspberryPi community so it<br>
would be really helpful if you could set up a sign-up page (eventbrite<br>
or whatever you use) so that we can make sure we don't get<br>
oversubscribed.<br>
<br>
Hopefully it should be a pretty awesome event. I'm keen for you to<br>
invite any groups/colleges/classes you think might be interested as<br>
well. We're all about education so would love to run some workshops<br>
and classes if you think that would be well received.<br>
<br>
Let me know what you think,<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
Rob<br>
