Hi,

I'm wondering if it could be a good idea to have a Maker
track at the next FSCONS?

I'm referring to the Maker Faire events that are spreading:

"Part science fair, part county fair, and part something entirely 
new, Maker Faire is an all-ages gathering of tech enthusiasts, 
crafters, educators, tinkerers, hobbyists, engineers, science 
clubs, authors, artists, students, and commercial exhibitors. All 
of these “makers” come to Maker Faire to show what they have made 
and to share what they have learned."

(quoted from http://makerfaire.com/makerfairehistory/ )

I believe there are already Maker events in Gothenburg.

And this upcoming week end there is the Oslo Maker Faire (maybe
some of you in Gothenburg would like to take a trip to Oslo?) :

The Oslo Maker Faire festival takes place at Teknisk Museum
(11-18).
Program and practical info at http://makerfaireoslo.no/ .
(I'm involved in it as I'll talk there about "Open Money and
Cryptocurrencies".)
