I like the idea of a HUG preceding the hackathon. We could spend the first day with people using/exploring HBase starting with a presentation then maybe having workshops like "building a small HBase cluster", "table design", etc. With all the committers around we could do a lot. In that case I think we would need more than one sponsor tho :P
