Clojure conj registration open (clojure-conj.org)

That looks like a great conference! I wish I could go, but I'll be out of the country. It would be great to meet everyone.

Kudos to the organizers for keeping the registration affordable. $199 for the early-bird seems very reasonable. I recall that the goal was to pay for the venue plus a little contingency.

Learn with Node and do a ClojureKnockout?

So far, so sad. Google maps says 15 hours and 9 minutes of traveling. I hope videos will be available.

Back-to-back with the ILC... Intentional?

You should go to clojure-conj (I certainly am). But if you can't make it, you might be interested in Strange Loop (St. Louis Oct 14-15), which also has a strong Clojure focus: http://strangeloop2010.com/calendar
