This year there MIGHT be a couple of us from here coming over - I say MIGHT as it is about 30% chance right now as it costs a pretty penny from here to do! If is does happen I am pretty sure we would love to be involved, would have to let you know when we do know if that is ok?

This year marks the 10th anniversary of the event. I'm conducting an informal survey so I may better plan the event. Most years the event starts at 6:00 pm with meet n' greet, then sit down for dinner some time after 7:00 pm. There's usually drinks afterwards at another venue. This year Siggraph will be held in Los Angeles, California at the LA convention center which is part of the Staples Center where the Lakers, Kings, and Clippers play home games. For reference, last time I hosted in Los Angeles the event was held at Trader Vic's on the north end of the LA Live block on Siggraph Sunday which is immediately north of the staples center. If you're interested in attending, let me know by sending an email to matt(dot)lind(at)mantom(dot)net. Include some basic details such as: - your name - email address - preferred day for dinner (1st choice and alternate choice). - maximum time/distance from convention center you're willing to travel - special requirements, if applicable (handicap access needed, food allergies, dietary restrictions, etc...) I'll use submitted information for the purpose of scouting locations and planning this year's dinner. It will not be shared with anyone. thanks, Matt
