Food Cart Dinner -- Matt Taggart
Speaker: Matt Taggart
Portland has a cool food cart culture, with small "pods" of food carts in groups around the city, with lots of high quality and interesting food choices. For people that are already in town Friday night, we will meet at 17:30 in the Plenary Room, and depart at 17:45 for a group of food carts (probably 4th and College). Families encouraged, there will be other kids and non-Debian partners there and lots of kid friendly food choices.

Join us Tuesday night after the evening session. HP is proviiding drinks and light food from 8:30 - 10:30 at the City Center Marriott in the second-floor bar.

There will be a laptop running hLinux with an xfce desktop if you want to poke around deeper. Oh, and drinks and food if you're tired of tech :-) Hope to see you there!
