I'm not sure of the source behind this rumor, but I'm not the one
that contacted the Columbus folks about workshop space for 
Perl 6/Parrot.  I think they have me confused with particle++ .  

Beyond this, given my current home situation [1] it is probably
unwise to expect that I'll be able to organize a YAPC::NA workshop
in any significant respect.  It would also be prudent for the
workshop organizers to have a backup plan in case I'm unable to
attend, as happened with the Copenhagen workshop earlier this year.
