I'd love to get the gang together too.  I just wish it was within driving 
distance of Boulder, Colorado…

Some things i'd like to work on if I had a weekend with fellow emc2-nerds:

prep for the 2.5.0 release!
a hostmot2 firmware buildbot
autobuilding docs
autobuilding Live CDs of official releases
get the unit tests of motion working...
converting my little manual 7x14 lathe to cnc
