Thanks for the feedback Hakan, glad you enjoyed the event.
Thanks indeed Hakan, and to Al Wood, and David May for a pair of very inspiring talks, and to everyone who came and help make for an enjoyable evening. I'm now motivated to experiment with XMOS, and try my hand at XC!
I'd also like to particularly thank my colleague, Andrew Back for seeding and organising the event, and remaining calm in the face of the fire alarm, just as Jonathan, David and Al arrived!
We hope to see everyone back at the next event, which is on the last Thursday of next month, the 27th, when we have Andrew Katz (on open hardware licensing) and a talk (and hopefully a demo) of RepRap, the speaker for which I think has to be confirmed.
We'd appreciate feedback and suggestions for further talks, or ways of running the event. Somethings mentioned in the pub which I thought sounded interesting was an evening dedicated to the success and future direction of Arduino through the lens of "open hardware", and tools and Websites for collaborating on Open Hardware projects. Do those ideas appeal?
In the meantime, Andrew and I will work on improving http://oshug.org, publishing the videos (as much as we have) and collecting any blog posts, photos, tweets people make about the event on the Web.
Thanks once again to all!
