I'm talking with a few participants for previous ElggCamps and we're wanting to gauge interest in an ElggCamp Portland sometime in early autumn. Is this something people would be able to attend? What would you like to see here? Any volunteers for speakers?
How many of the core team / contributors might be able to attend?

I should clarify--this is Portland, Oregon!
I will be there for sure if it takes place. I believe most of the Arck team will be in attendance.
I should be able to attend
This sounds really good. If you do it, I will attend this ElggCamp.
Autumn sounds good!
A bit far from Europe, so don't count on me, but really great to see it coming!
its too long from here :D
If I'm able (planning) I will attend. If you need a speaker I could also do that
I'm definitely interested, but cannot promise yet.
It might be an interesting idea to have something like "Get your own Elgg guru for 10 minutes" between speeches. Some of the attending core contributors could personally give help and mentoring on plugin development, tracing bugs, etc.
Also it would be nice to plan ahead one day for an informal meeting where we could just hang out and maybe do some coding together. Last year in Amsterdam we got this idea a bit too late so most people already had something else planned.
At ECSF we had a speakers dinner the night before that went over pretty well. We also had an informal meetup a few weeks before that bombed hard, likely due to the lack of advertising.
If we do that, we need to be clear that this isn't a "I'll write your plugin for you" sort of thing. We can call it a hands on workshop or something similar.
We usually have two tracks: one for devs and one for non-devs. Questions are fine...I enjoy answering questions about Elgg...but there have been more than a few instances where attendees wanted me to write plugins for them. That's not okay.
