Well said. The Nashville expo hall had a lot of distractions, but when I walked up to Ben's booth I remembered what bitcoin was really about.

I have heard that the Atlanta conference called TabConf is much more technically focused. I haven't attended yet.

As Bitcoin continues into mainstream adoption I imagine the popular conferences will become more like theme parks and the technical discussions will happen elsewhere. 

Perhaps an event organized by open sats would be a good way to get the right people together, raise awareness, and funding.

The Bush bash model from Australia caught my attention recently. I'm going to learn what I can about it.
