Re: [Printing-architecture] URGENT: We need to move the OpenPrinting Summit/PWG Meeting

Hi Ira,

May 6 - May 8 looks great for me, thanks! I'll join you virtually for 
the first two days (I'm sorry for confusion if my emails sounded like I 
could join the conference in person), so I don't need to get US visa 
(but it is good information nevertheless, I would like to visit the US 
for vacation in the future).

Thank you for moving the conference a little :)
