Hi, Is there space on LGM for a Market or so?
Whether commercial or noncommercial, many people (who do really interesting work!) are not so much interested in speaking or big demos, but would love to be able to hangout full days on a table with a computer on it, giving demos and having 1-to-1 contacts with visitors. It's also a great way to get into informal contact with developers from projects, people who typically hide in corners at conferences. :) Best of all: sponsors love such events too. -Ton- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ton Roosendaal Blender Foundation [email protected] www.blender.org Blender Institute Entrepotdok 57A 1018AD Amsterdam The Netherlands On 12 Feb, 2010, at 0:43, Simon Budig wrote: > Stani ([email protected]) wrote: >> I contacted [...] > > Another idea that occurred to me earlier is to contact the people > running shapeways ( www.shapeways.com ).
