Hi Marcel,<br><br>Thanks for writing back. This is a good point, though. I am trying to take an actual head count here and wish to do as little work as possible, so if you previously replied to a different thread, please do so again here.<br>

Hi again everyone,<br>
<br>
It seems like there is a decent amount of interest in a yt users/developers workshop sometime early in 2010. It's important to get a good estimate of the number of people who might attend. If you are interested in such a workshop as was described in this
thread and haven't responded, please do so.<br>
