Excellent!  :-)

Totally understandable.  But it never hurts to ask.   And hopefully whoever
is lurking on this list evaluating Plone will be inspired to take even
better notes. ;-)

Right on!  If you don't know George Irish already (he's just getting started
helping Oxfam Canada with their Plone implementation), you should.  I think
he's on this list now (hi George!).  

I was amazed at how many Plone users & developers came out of the woodwork
here in Seattle when we hosted a Plone Bootcamp with Joel Burton.   It might
be interesting to look into helping him put something together for Toronto
in late 06/early 07.   (There might be some cross-border issues with that,
so maybe you should see if Andy McKay would come out from Vancouver to do a
similar training.)

best,
jon
