We've been quite busy with the organizational aspects of the event. Anyways, we're all set for KDD. We're keeping touch with all the great fellas at Analog, who've helped us a great bunch. They've helped us set a battle plan for tomorrow and we're ready to put things in motion! Adding a tiny little comment inline below replying to one of your comments. :) Many thanks!

We don't want to give you any trouble. Especially because of the significant difference in timezones. Besides, I'm assuming we're only going to be sending in patches to IIO late in the day, and only after passing an internal review, so please don't waste your weekend on us. :) > >If we are lucky there may be a few others who can help out as >well on the day. > >> >> We are also aware of several problems that might turn up. >> Like that our patches might not be accepted or reviewed on >> the same day, which might result in a bottleneck.
