Hi Geoff, I am happy to support this. When this gets off the ground, I will send in my sponsorship money well before the event is held.
If you choose a location that has reasonable internet access, I'd like to attend by telepresence, and show off some of the items we're designing and making, a few more of which should be available by then. Exciting times!
