Yes, I'll be asking around the local groups for input and support, I 
know the NW FOSS community is very strong and together we should be able 
to pull something together.

Ross did pop into my mind, He mentioned about a Open Source City 2 
sometime this year on his twitter account, but i've not seen any more 
mention of it, I'll give him a nudge.
