I recall there being a suggestion for something in Ann Arbor due to its proximity for Toledo and coinciding with the NAMES show. I live in the Toledo area and certainly wouldn't mind seeing it held in this neck of the woods. A² is only a 45 min drive from Toledo. I don't have any space to offer (here or in A²) for a gathering (or time to commit to planning, etc.) but would like to attend some CNC workshop/EMC fest sessions, etc. I will be attending NAMES as well Jon. I have a couple ideas for a workshop/fest location that I could work on softening up for next year.
