It looks like Penguicon will be in the same hotel, the Dearborn 
Hyatt, April 19, 20, & 21. We can move forward with a lot of things that 
were in a holding pattern while the hotel confirmed lingering questions 
about its future-- it will not be demolished or change staff (though it 
might not have the same name). 

This year, the deadline to give Krunal Desai and Tim Slovik the names and 
descriptions of your events will be March 8. I can't speak for Tim, but 
it's a good bet that the earlier you submit it, the more flexibility you 
can get about the day and time of your event. Even just letting Krunal know 
that you *probably* want to do an event about [ vague topic title here ] is 
useful, and the more details you can estimate (duration, # participants, 
material costs), the earlier, the better it will be for you, the 
attendees, Tim as head of scheduling, Krunal as head of Tech/DIY, me as the 
schedule book editor-- basically everybody involved. It's worth your time 
to start brainstorming now and reach out early. 

http://penguicon.info/doku.php/staffmembers is the page to view the names 
and contact info for people working for the convention. One of my jobs is 
to be a liaison to i3Detroit. This is an active, not passive, role. I will 
actively try to predict what information the convention and i3Detroit 
members might need, look for presenters, and push information to you about 
the requirements and benefits of your participation. Please always talk to 
me if you don't hear back in a timely fashion from a conrunner who has a 
"sudden attack of life" or has an email problem or something. The more 
people (Tim, Krunal, me) who you CC, the better. 

The i3Detroit presence at Penguicon is going to be awesome once again! I'm 
looking forward to it!
