Hi, I'm just quickly browsing through here (have a ton of course work today)
but
I wanted to say a few things:

1) please don't forget to mention the MindFest website. Its info gets updated.
There are things there like links to directions, etc.

    http://www.mit.edu/mindfest/
or  http://www.mindfest.com/  (pointer)

2) please include any discussion of MindFest on lugnet.robotics.events

3) I think the possibility of LDraw getting a spotlight is like a dream come
true. I have been slowly introducing your work at MIT, but in a rather informal
way. So, TIM! PLEASE COME to MindFest! And remember the focus of the event
(read
through all info at our website)

4) thanks Eric.

sorry, gotta go.

-Suz.

For other LEGO groups out there this may be of use to you too.

NELUG is planning on participating in the MIT Mindfest on October 22-24.  We
have not completely ironed out our role yet but we are hopeing to to have a
NELUG display with some of our LEGO creations (Not necessarily
Mindstorm/Robotics stuff).  We are also considering having a computer set up
with LDraw on it for display/demo purposes.  We will also probably be helping
out with a building area.

I am considering having some sort of hand out or something with information on
all of the LEGO groups that have started up so far.  As the date of the event
approaches and we furthur refine our participation in the event and post
details.  I will try and use the new lugnet.org.us group for posting general
information about the event.

The following is the continuation of a discusion about the event.

Just so you all know we are going to be participating in the MIT Mindfest in

hoping to have a more general LEGO display and possibly a demonstration of
LDraw set up on a large monitor.

Could you post more details on the event, including directions to get to
MIT?  Though its a good days' trip for me, I'd consider coming up if the
time is convenient for me with school and all.  If I could know what's goin
on, I could bring some creations and stuff (but I don't have any
mindstorms).  I *might* have a Technic Shuttle by then :) so I could bring
that possibly.  But I would like to be there and help out with the LDraw
display...

We have to talk some more Tim.  We would love to have you there as a guest of
NELUG and representative of GMLUG and LDraw.org (Doesn't that sound important?
;)  ).

Here are a couple of links to some of our discusions in the New England groups.
We are still refining our role but this is some of what we have so far.
