Hey David,
Thanks for the plug & that DemoCamp was one of my highlights too. But I noticed a distinct lack of trips to Vancouver on this list. Maybe you can fix that in 2007? Sashimi is on me.

What a year! Thanks for letting us be a part of it!
I'm relatively new to this community but I've got to say it's been one hell of a lively and inspiring place to hang out (democamps, pub nights, Google groups.). What you have done for the Toronto tech scene in 2006 is incredible David. Looking forward to '07.
