Bookmarked, but is there a webpage or newsletter I can subscribe to for ongoing information? If it's in Philly I might want to check this out... What's the expected attendance count?

What's the expected attendance count?

Right now we could be looking at anywhere from 15-30ish

Of course, such a simple solution. A forum-newb is reborn. Thank you.

Ah, not like a venue has to be booked months in advance then.

No, but it'd be nice just to have an idea of where we'd be a little in advance. Binge said a few pages back he might have a house (not his own) in case we couldn't find anything else

I'm still working on the details.  My contacts back east aren't as friendly as they used to be in 2012 :-/ 3 years of lacking contact can certainly show a lot of change.

Just saw this I live in Vermont and would love to go to something like this. Vermont is a stones throw frm Montreal. 3 hours from Boston 5-6 hours from NYC, 8-10hours from Philly I think this would be awesome...is this thing still on? Let me know if I can help out in any way. Thanks
Sincerely

Yep, still is on. Right now the foremost issue is actually finding a venue. After we find one we'll try and narrow the date down a little

[hwood34]

so maybe also thinking NYC might just be easier at this point. probably shooting for late summer to early fall date-wise

[CPTBadAss]

NYC-area would be much easier for me than Philly and that time frame is nice.

* CPTBadAss is so selfish

 

[DrHubblePhD]

rumor has it that prototypes of a certain project of mine will be there... perhaps even a raffle

[hwood34]

eh, we'll just go with NYC. A bunch of people already live there anyway

[HoffmanMyster]

Is it easy to drive into NYC or is that more of a fly-into location?

[PunksDead]

i live 40 mins from the city and always take the train. Its not worth driving in that mess, especially since the subway will take you anywhere faster than driving/wasting gas idling.

This, every time I drive into the city it's a fiasco. This sounds like its happening I am super freaking excited

That's the most Midwestern question you could ask about NYC.  You ain't in the North Woods, anymore, boy.

[hwood34]

We might also see a presentation on 3D modeling from drhubblephd

I would really like to see that. His project is looking pretty dope.

[heedpantsnow]

For those in/near Philly, Flyersfan1 and I are going to meet up for lunch/coffee downtown this Thursday afternoon.  We would love it if anyone wants to join us.  This isn't a seminar, Keycon, or whatever.  Keyboards and keyboard talk are optional.  Just a hangout.  I don't want to derail this thread further, so please PM one of us for details.

[hwood34]

So would everyone be good with a date sometime August?

Aiming for mid-August rn. If anyone knows of any good places we could hold it, I'm all ears. Otherwise, we could just go with a hotel conference room

[Latin00032]

This is the first time I'm hearing of this event.

How many people are coming? I want to go depending on when it is.
