NI's Most Wanted - Impersonating a Developer
Certain member's of LAVA and OpenG are wanted by NI officials for allegedly impersonating members of the LabVIEW development team during a photo taken for the 8/15 NI Week Show Daily newsletter. These individuals are extremely nerdy and you are therefore urged to contact authorities rather than approach them yourself. See the evidence and eye witness reports...

The Salt Lick (Pictures & Hilights)
Our trip to The Salt Lick was great! We all met at the LAVA/OpenG Booth and then headed out on the road. We had about 30 people make it, which made for quite a lively dinner party. We didn't get seated right away, but 1 beer later we were seated and enjoying the BBQ. We had a great mix of LAVA, OpenG, and LabVIEW R&D team-members, so you can imagine that the fun conversations had over dinner.

Setting Up The LAVA\OpenG Booth
Well, I dropped by the Exhibition Hall to take a look at the LAVA\OpenG booth. We spent a little time setting things up. I had to do all the work! The booth is right next to the LabVIEW history booth so hopefully many LabVIEW geeks will be dropping by to pay homage to the LAVA lamp...
That's me!
Me and the LAVA lamp had a special bond

LAVA\OpenG Booth
This year, just like last, we will have a booth in the exhibition hall. Last year you could locate it by the LAVA lamp on the table. Don't worry the LAVA lamp will be back :) We will be in booth 181 next to the LabVIEW history booth. Come over to participate in heated discussions and see how much of a geek you really are! If you want to organize a LAVA group in your own area then come find out what it's all about.

BBQ Dinner at The Salt Lick
Last year several the OpenG and LAVA members got together for some BBQ, and think that its a tradition worth keeping. This year we will be going to Salt Lick BBQ, where they pile heaps of BBQ'd meat on your plate until you say stop -- literally, since it's all you can eat! So here's the plan...

The Compact Vision System is not a Compact FieldPoint module. Like the Compact FieldPoint Controllers, it is a LabVIEW RT Target. With the serial & ethernet ports, you can use the embedded LabVIEW code to talk to FieldPoint or Compact FieldPoint systems, but it does not plug onto a Compact FieldPoint backplane, nor do Compact FieldPoint modules plug into it.

FYI, the "CompactFieldPoint IMAQ module" is being called "Compact Vision System" or "CVS". Yes, it looks really exciting.

A clarification - the State Diagram Editor is released and shipping. It is an add on toolkit and not part of the pro version of LV, nor is it included in any dev suite package. It's pretty cool! There is a booth you can visit at the expo where you can give it a test drive.

I definitely recommend checking out the Friday session on creating Express VIs... the add-on toolkit for creating custom Express VIs released yesterday and is now orderable. The developer of the toolkit will be presenting the session. The toolkit is orderable today and should ship shortly.

OK, I take the blame. But only in Texas would a brewpub a) not have beer and b) not have food. Hey, at least there was no cover charge!

This week will actually be the announcement. I don't believe it's shipping yet, but it is orderable. There is also, of course, the Express VI Development Toolkit. It's really very interesting too. They're both on NI's Products Pages now so you can get some info there. Definitely go to the session on it.
