Welcome and updates:

Welcome to those who just joined the list. We're just beginning the
process of planning for DLV 2013. If you have any questions or
concerns, please let us know.

If you haven't done so already, please look over the main DLV web
site at:

Our Frequently Asked Questions list covers most of the questions we

DLV 2012 photos:

The DLV 2012 photo staging area will close Friday, August 31. We
ask all who attended to please review the photos and mark those
which they do not wish to be used on the final pages. Please check
again, as many additional photos have been received during the past
few weeks. ETA for final DLV 2012 follow-up pages is sometime during
the month of September.

Big thanks to all who supplied photos, which number over 1200, for
our DLV 2012 follow-up pages!

Dates for DLV 2013:

A one-month Call For Comments is now open regarding the dates for
Diva Las Vegas 2013.

We (DLV organizers) are currently in the process of selecting the
dates for Diva Las Vegas 2013 and we are asking for your input.

The timeframes we are considering are listed below. The vote
deciding which timeframe will be used will be taken in late
September or early October among the ORG members of voting status,
and the DLV 2013 dates will be announced shortly after the outcome
of the vote is known.

The floor is now open for your comments, positive or negative,
regarding any of the following proposed timeframes for Diva Las
Vegas 2013, listed here in chronological order:

1. Sunday, April 14 thru Friday, April 19.
2. Sunday, April 21 thru Friday, April 26.
3. Sunday, April 28 thru Friday, May 3.

An "asterisk" to the above is that week 2 (April 21-26) overlaps the
Laughlin River Run.

To make your comments, please visit the Diva Las Vegas Discussion
Forum on the web at:

http://www.geekbabe.com/dlv/mydlv/mainforum/viewforum.php?f=2

Alternatively you may use e-mail to send into the DLV Discussion
Forum, the associated Yahoo group, or simply reply to this mailing.

All comments about the proposed dates will be posted in public
on the DLV Discussion Forum unless you specifically note otherwise.

A few notes on the process ...

1. We're not considering any timeframes other than those listed
above at the present time. Other timeframes will be considered if
and only if none of the listed timeframes are found to be workable.

2. This is not a vote, it's a call for comments, and detailed
specific comments from those planning to participate are what we
are most interested in. We're asking all to please focus comments
on the above proposed timeframes and why you are in favor of any of
them, why you may be opposed to them, why they will or will not fit
into your schedule, your specific reasons for liking or disliking
any of the above, etc.

3. Comments and objections regarding any of the above proposed
timeframes need to be made during the Call For Comments period
and not after the outcome of the vote is known.

The Call For Comments period will remain open through the third week
of September.

Pinkfest:

Pinkfest 2012 happens this October and we would sure love to see
you there! Pinkfest 2012 will be our 12th. annual Pinkfest!

Pinkfest is another "Vacation, Not A Convention" which happens in
Chicago each October.

Pre-Pinkfest activities on Tuesday evening, October 9!)

mainstream and alternative venues.

Things to come:

We will be announcing the dates for Diva Las Vegas 2013 in late
September or early October. Please do not make any non-reversible
arrangements (air, hotel room, etc.) until the DLV 2013 dates are
announced as final.

In late November or early December we'll be announcing our
suggested hotels for DLV 2013. At Diva Las Vegas, you may stay
wherever you wish, but we make hotel suggestions for those who are
either unfamiliar with Las Vegas hotels, or wish to stay in the
proximity of other DLV attendees.

In early January, re-registration will open for those who have
previously attended DLV. Registration for those who have not
attended DLV in the past will begin in February.

Other details will be announced as the dates approach.
