You see, our experts describe you as an appallingly dull fellow, unimaginative, timid, lacking in initiative, spineless, easily dominated, no sense of humour, tedious company and irrepressibly drab and awful. And whereas in most professions these would be considerable drawbacks, in chartered accountancy they are a positive boon.

This is excellent!

I would love to participate to demonstrate the many features of my radios.

Are the parcels subdivided so I might be able to place a "deeded" or "shared" model for a hands on demonstration?

*Appended as requested*

1- To demonstrate llSameGroup() as it applies to land tools. (ie) Deeding or sharing.
2- To explain the fundamentals of streaming audio, compression and bandwidth.
3- Comparing lists, both in prim memory and dataserver.
4- Limitations of open listens or instant messaging and using llListenRemove()

Would be a honor to show some computer items there and what you can do with them (email etc). Although it shows more that you dont have to be that clever to let scripting work for you ;-)

Will throw in a few scripted froggers and clocks too!

If I'd heard about this before I'd of loved to have participated. As it is, only hearing about it right now, I've not got enough time to get my stuff together to do it properly unfortuantely.

I've got a few neat things I'd like to show, some done in collaboration with Delta Epsilon. There's the avatar moving tube system and fractal generators I had up in Burning Life, and more recently some prim animation stuff, including moving tentacles, some generalised user-friendly prim animation scripts, and a prim based video screen.

I just get the opportunity to market such awesome scripts, but I will be displaying Candide LeMays new HUD version for my Crowd Control product he has designed for me. I also am hoping to have a new type of Gesture Vendor I've been tinkering with a long time now functional enough to display.

I'll be showing off a few things, mainly my follow drone, a vehicle I've been working on, and several avatar attachments.

Gnat Technologies would like to showcase the Second Life Information Network (InfoNet) in addition to the R4 Virtual Computer.

If we have enough time to setup displays, we might also be able to sneak a peek in at the Notekeep SL Mail System and R4 Media Player.

Trade shows often also offer networking opportunities ....

Will there be scriptors who are independent contractors looking for work? Some sort of meet and greet opportunites for those of us who periodically need to have contract work done?

Seems like it would be a good opportunity :)

we hope to have some notice boards listing scripters looking for work along with a line up of talks and public stages.

Heh, Splat, put me down for a booth, ibMapper the cartography suite will be shown off.

The mapping system that makes up ibMapper is a very complex one, worth presentation. Even if it's currently incomplete.

hmm... sadly, I can't get anything I'd really like to show off done in 2 days. Also can't cancel my weekend plans on 2 days notice :/. No chance of pushing it back a week?
