Hi Tom, hi list, What's the status on the dates? At our lab, conference viѕits etc. for 2011 are currently being planned, so I thought I'd ping this thread. I guess it's unlikely someone will cross the atlantic "just" for a week-end of GNU Radio (I'm not saying "wouldn't like to"), so if the dates aren't fixed yet, I would like to mention that putting said conference close to some other conference (say, something COMSOC or similar) might increase the chances of getting Europeans to participate. For example, PIMRC 2011 is in Toronto (practically 'round the corner :) from 5-8 September.
