Christina/WAMALUG -
Do you plan to publish the list of registered attendees for Brickfest, by any
chance? It would be someting I'd be interested in seeing, but I understand
there are privacy issues around it. Perhaps if you get permission from people,
or if there's a general concensus that it is ok, than you could? I'm fine with
you publishing my name on the list.

I will not be publishing the list of attendees until after the event. However,
if anyone would like to publicly announce that they are attending. That's
great. This would be the place to do it.
We currently have 23 people that are not WAMALUG members that have registered.
Soon I'll be announcing a special offer to the first 50 people that complete
their registration. So if you have not sent in your check here is a little
incentive.
I have received 9 different proposals for presentation topics and since I
originally only had 5 time slots scheduled, I'll have to either ask them to
volunteer to present Friday or Sunday or we'll have to have more than one
workshop at a time (Personally I'd like to avoid that it did not work well last
year).
I have had only a few people contact me about pairing them up with a random
roommate. I'll be contacting them soon

I'll be there, come hell or high water. BTW, I'm going to be making airline
reservations soon. What airport do I want to fly into?

my guess is probably national - since it's the only one that's on the Metro.
From the other two you'd have to either get a shuttle or some sort of other
transportation to get downtown... Of course, if you're renting a car,
this might not be such an issue for you...
HTH :)

I guess I'd better figure out where Richard Shamus lives first. :) He is
being kind enough to put me up for the weekend!
I can't wait to meet everyone!

depends on where your hotel is
the brickfest itself would be closes to National (DCA)(10-20 miles), BWI is
up in baltimore (kinda far), and dulless (IAD) is west about 40 miles.

Reagan (formerly known as National) Airport is your best bet. I personally
avoid Dulles Airport - IMHO it is one of the most inefficient airports in
the US. You can also pick up the Metro right outside the terminal at Regan.
If it is more than 10 miles from Regan to where Brickfest is I would be
surprised but a more useful bit of information is how long it will take you
to get there which will vary greatly depending on what time you arrive (same
holds true for Dulles). BWI is a hike, I figure an hour best case but since
Southwest flies in and out of BWI, sometimes fares are attractive.

...If you're renting a car, any of the three will work fairly well. I find BWI
easiest to use, since both Dulles and National seem over crowded for their
design. National is definitely best if you aren't getting a car since its on
Metro and you can just hop on a train and be at the Fest area in about 15
minutes (you can get everywhere interesting in DC on Metro, mostly).
PS: If you don't get a car, I'm sure there will be space in other cars to get
you to The Store, which, unfortunately is not Metro accessible (yet :-)

BTW, you can pick up the subway from BWI into DC. The 2 systems overlap.
