Any Linux users coming to NIWeek 2012?

[JoeFriedchicken]

I was just curious if any Linux Users will be attending NIWeek this year, and if you will be attending if you are interested in a meet-up of some sort.  If you are planning on attending and want to meet some other NI Linux users please post. I'd love to meet everyone so hopefully some of you will be able to attend.

I'm attending -- but I'm not a Linux user - -yet!

I have the opportunity to port some applications on Linux devices.  But, the cost of the Linux/LabVIEW license has on top of our other licenses has not made the endeavor cose effective.  However, that will hopefully be changing.

I, for one, would be interested in meeting to learn who is doing what in the Linux world.

I am attending and I use LabVIEW on Linux.

What sort of meetup did you have in mind?

I will be at NI Week. Have dabbled some but want to use more.

I think a get together would be great for the Linux community at NI. Maybe a lunch discussion or something like that. I could talk about a fun LabVIEW for Linux feature that Windows and Mac do not have. I would also love to get more feedback on the LabVIEW for Linux product and areas of improvement you would like to see.
