Nick,

We typically set our events schedule (and budget for events) on the 1st
of the month preceding the start of each quarter.  The whole list of
events is here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraEvents 

What that means is that -- for the most part -- our schedule and budget
for September through October have been set.  Nevertheless, I'm going to
send this around to the Fedora Ambassadors mailing list to see if anyone
in the Atlanta area might be available to come speak.  I'm not sure
whether we will have any funds for schwag, but first let's see if we can
get some people coverage for the event.
