# GNU Hackers Meeting and LibrePlanet, Cambridge, MA, March 18th-21st
The first US GHM promises to be a great event. The origins of GNU are
well-represented by people like RMS, John Gilmore, and Rob Savoye -- but
so is the future, with newer contributors like Steven DuBois of GNU
Generation. It should be an excellent conversation!

It's not too late to register -- just add your name to the list, and
drop me an email if you have any questions.
## Dinner Thursday night
For everyone who has arrived in town, we'll go to dinner Thursday night
(http://groups.fsf.org/wiki/LibrePlanet2010/Initial_introduction_for_GNU_maintainers).
## Friday Talks / Discussions
Several attendees will be giving short lightning talks about the GNU
projects they are involved in.
We'll also have longer presentations from David Sugar on Replacing
Skype, Michael Flickinger on Savannah, Matt Lee on GNU FM, and more.
