Just for completeness, I'm in Washington, DC... so I'm game for an East
Coast gathering as well. ;-) Although I'd like to see one nationally...
that's where prize money could come into play.
As for research papers, judging from the conversations on the list here, I
imagine some people could come up with topics. Either way, there's no
reason that input needs to be limited to GIMPsters, especially if we host
at a university. I think student papers are always interesting, and there
are bound to be people out there who haven't learned of the glory of being
in GIMPs. Maybe we could win some CPU years from the Bovine people, or
the fledgling SETI people as a result. ;-)
GIMPS is best! Or something like that.
