Ooooh, I see...
Yeah, it does totally ruin the joke but then I really appreciate your pointing it to me, Frik, saves me from embarassment in front of my students
... We have something in French ("mettre l'eau a la bouche") which translates into something like "to bring water to your mouth" and basically means "whet your appetite", so it got me confused there. But then you guys also say "mouth-watering" to mean "appetizing", right?
I must admit I was so busy with other stuff and remote from what was going on during the last QExpo that I did not notice the organizational problems you were faced with, Scar. All the more merits to the team to make it look so awesome, then
And yeah, you are right, while there are other things to think about before setting the date, it does not mean that it should be set only a couple of weeks in advance. The 8-month thing sounds pretty right.
I totally agree on the TF thing. I am sure there could be ways to attract those members of the community to the event.
As to a CocoT release, well, it's true that my last booth kind of sucked and that, except for a biggish UQC update, the one before was also not ground-breaking
... I'm planning on working on TransloQuake in the next couple of weeks, though, so I'm hoping to post some screenshots in the general discussion thread soon
