FOSS4GHappyHour

With 68 days left until the conference we, the LOC, are going to start trying to connect more directly with those attending and thinking about attending. We are going to have happy hours with members of the committee and sub-committees. These sessions will be run in the form of an AMA (Ask Me Anything).
