Wholeheartedly seconded. I had a great time.

I felt that the multiple groups nature of the meet added a lot  
relative to a l.pm techmeet. There was a really good atmosphere. Of  
course I should've known that delivering an E4X talk to the ex- 
Fotangoites would result in me having my ear bent about how crap it  
is, but I enjoyed it. Particularly I enjoyed being sent jerakeen's  
slides from his E4X talk in 2006, which were embarrassingly better  
than my own.

If somebody can suggest a Slideshare tag / grouping for these it'd be  
great. Somebody suggested pronEtworking would be appropriate given the  
BCS' name for the event.
