It has been talked about quite abit and the general consensus was that
no one was going worry about having jsut one Demo Day this year . We
will try to get things under one flag next year instead . It is
important . It is important for a number of reasons but mostly because
of the force that such unification gives us with regards to the
mainstream media . Online activism attracts media attention in a big way
. ESR has himself expressed how important it is to use the media in
increasing our visibility . We got under the radar , but if we want to
attract applications to our platform then it is time to be seen .
