Hmm, maybe a public works art project for the interior of the garage? Wonder what they would say if i asked if we could paint the inside of the garage with car pc controlled turret?

Also - if we want Sunday as a code fest...I'm game. I could arrange for space for different groups to code, all the wifi and electric we need. This could be a great way to kick off auto app mart and move OS Dash along as well as do some app dev for some FEs.

Can we get wifi in the garage? Last year I piggybacked on someone elses.

I'll make sure we have it. I'm thinking of speaking to CLEAR about this...I have been working with them on a new Baltimore tech show - betascape - so hopefully we can get them to "sponsor" via Wimax 4 g connectivity.

If not, I'll sort something. Got to have Wifi.

Psh, I went to the Las Vegas meet up without a car, it's not difficult

I'd love to attend as I'm in town and would like to talk to people about adding some smarts to my electric MR2 conversion but...I'm getting married that day. Definitely up for the next one though.

I was looking for any possible way to come down because I'm absolutely fascinated by these things, but unfortunately it's either a 2000 mile drive or $750 round trip (plus I'm not old enough to rent a car so I'd be walking)

Anyone have any suggestions? Otherwise you should film the speakers so I can watch them afterwords.

We will be filming, so if you cannot make it out, we'll have videos. This is only the second annual. Perhaps next year you can make it, we are looking to grow this each year.

I unfortunately am starting school in the coming summer and then I will be more then broke for a few years.

I can't wait to see the videos, it's always fun to learn. It will be awesome once I've researched enough to dive into my carpc project! I'm sure all attending will have a blast!
