I'll be really glad to see you, Hilaire, if you can make it.  The offer
of help with the travel expenses extends to anyone who needs it, so long
as it will help ($200 gets pretty thin if spread out too much).

I don't have any feel for who will attend this seminar, and I doubt if
the organizers do either.  We might get educators who are unfamiliar
with Linux, ones who have some exposure to Linux, or Linux users who are
interested in education.  We'll have to be flexible in our approach to
try to accomodate the interests of whoever shows up.
