I was hoping to make the trip down south, but sadly I'll have to pass
on another SoCal gathering.

Given my recent experience, though, and on the theme of collaboration,
I have to caution anyone against doing business with Josh Mellicker or
dvcreators.net, especially in light of Josh's offer to get involved
with planning a revcon. If someone is seriously thinking about doing
work with them, my advice would be to get the money up front and make
sure there aren't any contract loopholes he can try to weasel out of.
But my main advice would be not to go down that road at all.
