		<description>Thanks Peter!

Truth is, the things I'd like to talk about diverged a bit from the call for proposals, and I didn't find any specific inspirations in the time available.  And yes, I'm planning on attending the conference, it was completely under my radar until Joe's post.</description>

		<description>As Joe pointed out, you don't need to submit a complete paper, just an abstract with enough info for the board to make an evaluation. Sadly, the deadline has come and gone, but I hope you get a chance to attend (and consider presenting next year). We're definitely interested in getting speakers with fresh material and new ideas (like your experience with Dungeon Runners).</description>

		<description>Bleh.  It's pretty obvious I haven't had time to pursue my idea, even enough to submit a proposal.  Still, I hope the conference does great, and maybe next year I can pull an idea back out of the bin and see where it goes. :-)</description>

		<description>I meant to post before Christmas, but Open Beta kept me busy. :)

You don't have to be finished (or even started) on the paper by 1/21. Just have enough of an idea what you want to do to write an abstract. I suggest you go ahead and submit with what you know about the paper now.</description>

		<description>Hmmm, I've got an idea for a paper but I'm not sure if I'll have in sufficiently fleshed out to know whether it's worth submitting by the 21st.

Perhaps if you'd posted this before Christmas, I could have obsessed over it while I was on vacation, but oh well. :-)</description>

		<description>It was nice to have another major convention have its home in the Seattle area for a change.  Even for those who didn't attend the convention, many got together and traveled to see those attending the convention and to visit the many development studios in the Seattle area.

I look forward to the 2nd annual.</description>

		<description>Let me just say to those who are reading the comments that I was treated really well as a speaker at OGDC/ION last year. It was also the best conference I attended out of the 10+ that I went to in 2007.</description>
