I think it couldn't possibly hurt, and besides, I want an official excuse to go to Japan twice a year (stop messing with my thinly-veiled justications here, Satoshi - *whack!* :-) More importantly, I think it would keep everybody moving if we sort of had milestones to hit twice a year or so - people tend to be a bit more motivated if they know they have a big meeting coming up where they'll be expected to discuss their latest progress and will look a little silly if there's no progress to discuss. > Also, we need firm committments from all parties involved to make this > work.

That should practically be in the FAQ. Or would that be the FC?

It will, and thanks. > The conference is in Doubletree? I thought it was in the Conference > Center. :) (BTW, I'm staying in Marriott.) The conference center is *in* the Doubletree hotel. ;) It's no big deal either way since the Marriott is just across the street and they even have a connecting walkway. Monterey is a great town, I think we're going to have some fun there. It certainly beats NEW ORLEANS IN THE SUMMER, that's for sure! :-) > Great, tack a little message to me at the end of a long and unrelated > post which I happened to read just because I was interested in the > topic.
