An actual head count from this cat herd is a little difficult, but the
last time we did a casual ALE ale tasting like this we had about
a dozen folks attend.

I expect any ALE planning discussions at the gathering to to be
very casual as well. Since anarchy tends to be the organizational
model for both Linux development and Linux support groups like
ALE, any directions this group takes will ultimately be determined
by which small groups of committed individuals step up to the
plate and volunteer the time and energy needed to bring their
good ideas into reality.
