Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] EclipseCon stick

[Nick Boldt <nickboldt@xxxxxxxxx>]

+1 for having the stick (I can always use another USB drive, esp. if 
they're 2 or 4G this year so they can be used as a portable boot drive 
for trying out new OSes like the OLPC's Sugar)

+1 for something other than the presentation materials, since those are 
small and can be dl'd from the website.
