Believe it or not, we're coming up on 5 years since the first release of WordPress.
Come celebrate the 5th anniversary with friends starting at 9 PM at the 111 Minna club at, you guessed it, 111 Minna in San Francisco, California.
No presents necessary, just bring yourself and any wp-friends. We'll have a password at the bar you can use to get drinks, just ask a fellow WordPresser. It is a bar, so 21 and up.
Here's the announcement of WordPress 0.7 on May 27, 2003:

Should be getting into the Air Port shortly before then for Google I/O - looking forward to it!
It would be great if it could be somewhere else besides Minna.
I'll try to make it on the way home from NetSquared.
Happy Birthday, WordPress! What a coincidence. I just celebrated my blog's ( http://www.dawnsrecipes.com ) first birthday yesterday. Sadly, I'm on the other coast, and won't be attending.
Hate? What's to hate?
I'll be there to help WordPress celebrate!
Dang. I won't be flying in until Saturday the 31st. You should postpone this until next Tuesday.
I love wordpress.
Will be having a glass or two of whisky here in Scotland to celebrate your birthday. Sorry I can't be there - but have a blast - and here's to the next 5 years!
why are all events in sf 111mina-held ?!
111 Minna is a great venue with easy going staff, lots of space and plenty of great art to look at it on the walls. As long as you're 21, you won't have any problems. If you're underage or bringing underage people with you, then you'll have a hard time getting in. You know, liquor laws n stuff.
21, huh? Are we sure Ma.tt can get in? :-D
111 Minna is cool, if you are a fly.
Sike, I'm coming.
Can someone have Irina do drive-bys to pick the drunks up? This thing is off the chain!
111 Minna is great if you're not carrying a large video camera and tripod on your back ;)
Shucks!
Looks like I'm a week late for the party, heading from Toronto to San Fran for my first look around next week...thanks to everyone at WordPress for such a wonderful platform for my Urban Flute Project recording adventures!

I hate Minna. But I'm going anyway.
