Now depending on how you see this….Brendan gave you a blessing (or torture) that is me.

By the way…………..there is automatic upgrade notifications for plugins and WP core files……will 2.8 finally have that for Themes? Plugins have had an advantage for years, now it’s the THEME ERA.

I have a few questions (which relate to the content of your post):

How do you decide on which WordCamp events to go to as attendee or presenter (what if two events ask you to do a presentation).

I would love to go to some of the WordCamps but coming from Toronto to New Orleans, Las Vegas, Denver……It is expensive. Plane: $1,145 Toronto-Columbus (OH), yet if I would go via bus to Buffalo then go from Buffalo to Columbus (OH) it would be $245 (the whole domestic vs. international thing). I don’t see me travelling for a few hours by plane (or a lot more by bus) for just one day then travelling a few hours (or a lot more by bus) to go back. All the WordCamps that are coming up that have their speakers on their websites have at least one that I would want to see.
Obviously I would go to one where I see your name..or maybe not. I am watching American Idol and I will make up my mind after.

There was the WordPress meetups for January and February but the admin (the guy who organized WordCamp Toronto 2008) resigned for the group. How do I go about starting a Toronto meetup group?

Last question: WP.com has a script that turns all lowercase p from WordPress, is there anywhere I can download it for my wp.org site? I know in phpbb there is a censor section where it changes all references of the F word to #$@! or , maybe use a censor plugin for WP to make it WP and not Wp?
