They are still taking bids on the location of the next WarpStock.
http://www.warpstock.org/ It will be good for osFree to have a
presentation of osFree(?). It could show the accomplishments and
goals of osFree so others could participate and/or support it(?).

Certainly this is a good idea. However, who is going to do it?

Maybe it'd be better to wait a little bit until we finish the operating
system and get a small userbase so we have some potential for people
to donate enough money for us to have presentations like this.

Most probably. At the present time we need to finish kernel loader
for the first show.

Perhaps a small display?

Perhaps a small display? Something to let those at the WarpStock
know what is being done and hoped to be done?

I think we need to have _some_ result first. Yes. We alredy have (thanks to valerius)
MBR, bootsector and FreeLDR prototype. But still some problems with correct interaction
of above items. Only thing we can do now it is review of current boot sequence logic
(see in wiki for boot sequence and ideas about extensions and realisation) and general
design logic. Of course, we can start now to prepare some texts for presentation,
but I prefer to show something live.

I think, we have no real progress yet. We have some ideas about boot
sequence, and someone can take a lecture about it, but this lecture will
not be complete without a practical result and working algorithms, and
these are not finished, so, it may be better to get some working results
first, like loading and running L4 and initial servers. (work in progress,
but not yet finished) So, may be, next time...
