I've mentioned this before on the mktg-list - is there any possible
way that we could take advantage of press presence at the event and do
a mini-interview session or panel or presentation of some sort (with
shiny press kits, of course!)? F13 will have been out for about a
month prior to RH Summit; it would be a great time to reinvigorate
press / analysts and keep the train of coverage flowing. It would also
be a great time to work on trying to educate press on some of the
"oopsies" that have been made (on their part).
