that's awesome! Please do share your paper (and other interesting
results) here once it's ready!

As Gunner already explained our session format is slightly different,
but as he also indicated there will be other sessions were you will be
able to share your work. *Plus* we will have some more days for hacking,
where we can also do 'regular' presentations in the evenings after
dinner.
