Well that looks cool and I could come…
But I think it's better for this October event to stick to Oxford 
because we would have a real audience and rich exchanges (with the 
university, the english cocoa/unix developers etc.), also a high speed 
internet connection.
Otherwise, this summer during July and August I will be in Annemasse 
near Annecy and Nicolas Roard should be somewhere in the French Alps 
also, then may be we can do something like a 
ultra-small-developer-meeting-… (iirc there are also some steppers in 
Switzerland).
