i sent them some info on a couple of my projects today (hadn't yet read
your mail about them not returning emails...), because it looks like an
interesting event. however, i'm not too sure i can go anyway, due to busy
timing and travel funding, unless i'm in europe at that time anyway. so i
guess i'm sort of like you - all things being equal i probably won't wind
up going there, but on the other hand i could if things work out.
