+1000 to that, David, I think in many ways this was the best hackathon we've had, so again thanks to Matt, Teri and the crew for their very hard work in putting it all together, and for everyone else for making the effort to come and share their interest in HTM.
One great aspect of the weekend was the chance to quietly discuss how we could, as a community, make things even better for the project and the people working on it. I'd like to personally thank Matt for his attitude and devotion to making everyone feel like they have a place in the community. He'll need a good rest this week, so I'll leave it to him to tell everyone about what's coming up. There were fewer hacks than last time, but I think the quality this time has never been better, and that was shared by many people I spoke with at the end. Thanks to everyone who worked hard on their hacks, especially those who didn't feel they'd done enough to demo in time. Please finish up your hack and put together a demo - we'd love to see what you've come up with. Finally, it was great to meet you, David, you're even more like yourself in person! Just one of many friendships I saw cemented over a lovely few days in Manhattan.
