- Montreal Linux Symposium
djf_jeff inquired about conference fees for this event, ke4qqq
     requested a conference page be put on the wiki with the budget
     needed since it exceeded a trivial amount.
It appears there is a steep hike in the fee after June so this
     needs resolution and quick payment if it is approved.

     Details about some of the expected costs next meeting with luck.
