I'm back from the 2005 VATSIM Convention in Washington DC and I had a blast. I enjoyed meeting many people in person for the first time. Thanks to all the organizers for putting it together.
I made a couple of announcements during my talk. First, I have entered into a formal agreement with VATSIM whereby SquawkBox 3 will run exclusively on the VATSIM network. Second, there's an easter egg hidden within SquawkBox 3. You'll have to ask a convention attendee for the details!
The slides from my talk can be found here.
