Re: [DIYbio] Re: Excellent article on Biology Hacklabs in The Scientist

The key thing in setting up a global conference is having a compelling program. Hackteria is the prime example of that. Marc even manages to attract people to India. The FBI meeting was also interesting enough from many points of view for me to take a week off and fly around the globe. Same thing goes for the meeting in Paris last December.

So let's first sort out a shortlist of cool things to do or discuss. I am sure the logistics and video streaming will follow naturaly.

Yeah, I thought it was weird that all those articles Patrik just
posted were saying things like "Another important task is to encourage
further institutionalization of the DIYbio movement. .... A key first
step is choosing a leader. The NSABB, set up after the Fink Committee
report, has already become a source of expertise in regulation and
safety and is an obvious choice as a central authority to oversee
DIYbio."

I don't think people are getting the message about non-affiliation.
