OpenG licensing discussion split off to https://lavag.org/topic/18995-keeping-track-of-licenses-of-openg-components

That site is addicting. Although it seems to stop playing tracks if the window is minimized, or if I go to a different browser tab. This almost blew my mind: http://labs.echonest.com/Uploader/index.html?trid=TRQDXXM13AFAB66B3F

Fixed. I've uploaded it to youTube as one video.

Ha! That actually made me laugh out loud ...but for reasons you may not know I think that's reasonable. And it describes the current state well. If anyone wants to present to the world, they can (and should!) If they want to present in a closed forum of their peers, they can at the CLA summit. Having the restriction of being a CLA better guarantees that the audience *are* your peers. Sure, there are plenty of people that aren't CLAs that are peers, but there are many more that aren't. This is the only control NI can really have over making sure the people in the room are peers, and I think that's important. That said, I don't think I'm against the CLA summit presentations moving toward a TED-style open release, and it's a concept that I think deserves more thought. Of course, that may push some presenters (for all the reasons already mentioned) and/or some sweet juicyness underground (one presentation at the recent US summit comes to mind that was super juicy, and would never go public). It's off topic, but I'll add it here: honestly, I *like* the presentations I've seen at the summits I've attended, but it's the other things (being-there-and-talking-with-peers) that makes it worth it for me.

Sounds to me like the CLA would, indeed, have value to you.

I know this isn't a TestStand forum, but I really liked this article from Rowdy Dave. Especially "...regardless of how much faith you have for a particular tool, keeping an open mind to the fact that there may be better tools out there to use in certain contexts is a healthy state of mind to have." http://davidpcl.com/2014/10/11/learning-to-love-teststand/

You're right, this has been done before, but your version is the best and most feature-rich example I've seen. Nice work!

Now *that's* impressive!

I like her - that girl's got moxy. Although I'm wishing I hadn't have donated all of those ribbons to here - Otherwise I would have reached the floor by now. Oh well, I guess I'll have to come back next year.

No. Organizers of the BBQ are exempt from the prize pool. Note: I am not helping organize the BBQ this year, so I guess should be mine, right?....right?
