Tom, Thanks for updating the GNU Radio conference page [1]. It is good to see the schedule coming together. You had mentioned a hackfest or something before/after the conference. Is this correct? If so what is the schedule? I need to look at making transportation and hotel arrangements.

I’ve been waiting to hear about another obligation on that day. Unfortunately, I’ve heard, and I won’t be able to host the Saturday hack-day. I was hoping these things wouldn’t conflict and happen on different weekends, but it’s not something that I can get out of. The rest of the conference is still on, though, and we still have space left for people to register! [http://gnuradio.squarespace.com/gnu-radio-conference-2011/](http://gnuradio.squarespace.com/gnu-radio-conference-2011/) I hope to hear this week about hotel group rates for people waiting on that information.

If you still want to have the hack day on Saturday, I can commit to handling it. Johnathan ---

There’s a bit of an issue about access to the building, who’s responsible, etc., etc. However if there is significant interest by the people coming, then I would want to support it (hint, hint, if you are coming, please speak up now on this issue!). I can be there for a few hours in the morning, but then I’ll have to work out the logistics with the people at Penn for the rest of the day. One main issue is that the building is locked, so I would need to find someone else with building access to help out. Tom
