I wanted to reiterate my support for this model. FUDCon is forced to be many things to many people, and thus ends up very expensive from a logistical point of view as well as a financial one. FADs give us flexibility in spending, organizing, and reporting, and also spread the public awareness messages about advancements we make throughout the year rather than clustering them around a single event per region. -- Paul W.
