Sci-Fi Hi-Fi

Lately a lot of people have been asking me questions about whether or not I’m going to be putting on a dinner or party in conjunction with WWDC. The answer is: yes, of course! The problem is, this year my plans for the shindig are a bit more ambitious, and I simply haven’t had a lot of time to investigate the logistics yet.

Because I have yet to finalize any of my grand plans, and I don’t want to disappoint people if they don’t work out, I’ve been intentionally tightlipped so far, but I do realize people want to make plans, so I’ll provide a few details now:

• This year I plan to transition completely away from a dinner held in a restaurant and toward a proper party in a dedicated venue. I do still hope to have some refreshments provided by a local San Francisco legend (more on this later if it actually works out).
• The party will be held, as always, on the first day of WWDC–which this year means August 7th.
• If everything works out as planned, this year’s will feature some additional attractions beyond the party itself.
• There’s a good chance that the venue will be 21+, which, sadly, means many students will be unable to attend. I’m going to try to work around this, but if not, my apologies to our undergrad friends.
• I eventually plan to gauge attendance by posting an event on Upcoming.org, but it would be interesting to see through the comments here what peoples’ reactions to the above are.

Thanks everyone for your patience as I figure this out, and I look forward to seeing you August 7th!
