Although I do agree, it would be nice, even if it is a bit late. (One point twenty one gigawatts?!) The other option if we wanted to
We're too late for workshops, but (unless I'm reading something worng) we have until december 1 for a splinter meeting (to be honest I can't tell what the difference is between the two, but I don't believe in following rules all that closely.) Southwest goes to Austin, which is my preferred airline. So I could +1 Austin with ease. I haven't had a good slice of hipster in years.
This is a very good idea. Maybe we could try it with Amazon EC2? I have had success building an AMI in the past, and it's very easy to do... although not free, and not local. I do though like the idea of thumb drives... and I can't imagine it wouldn't be an interactive workshop!
That might be rad, if the network connection is reasonable-- If we had 50 users for an 8 hour meeting and can swing the cheap option, that's only $35. Show me 50 thumb drives for $35 and I'll show you 2 thumb drives and a pile of plastic. Also windows users could get on with putty, if there are any of those.

Alright, so it looks at this point like most people on this list are in favor of having a workshop sometime next year and in a place that is cheap for people to get to. As discussed earlier in this thread, it would be good to start this whole thing with a users workshop to get more people involved and to get them turned into developers if we can. I think the next step is to see how interested users would be in attending such a thing. I will do this now and we can pick up again once we see what users are feeling.

I'm also good with Chicago/NY (more towards Chicago). That said, if enough people are going to Austin, would there be any point in tacking on to the end of that? We might be able to pick up more new folks that are around for AAS. Anyways, just a thought. As I said I'm good with pretty much anywhere. Sam

Something else to keep in mind. There is probably a nonzero number of people who will be going to AAS, which is January 8-12 in Austin.

Awesome. Let's try for Chicago, and it sounds like John wants January, which I would actually kind of prefer (Chicago and NYC are both so beautiful in the Winter!) and then everyone else is largely open to. I'll reopen discussions in mid- to late-October, after I take a look at what is available during those periods.
