So I know that you guys found out about the event a little late and all,
but I was curious about a show of hands whom all may be interested if we
were to hold a second one.  This is our first run of such a build off, but
we hope to learn from and improve upon it based on this one.  We'd like to
do a couple more around the South and really jump start the RepRap movement
within the US.  I don't have any further details at this time on a
potential second, but gauging interest will help us determine how quickly
we may need to get another together.

I and the rest of the bunch from Memphis look forward to seeing those of
you who join us in Nashville.  It's going to be a busy but fun filled
weekend.

Thanks,

Daniel H.
