I'm not sure of the feasibility of it, but some "remote" events using streaming could be really neat, There could be "viewers" or even participants in Toronto, Vancouver etc..
Could even be possible to do something over accessgrid where possible... Ryerson, SFU, SAT would have access to the required network.
I hope there will be lots of installations and performances...
Maybe oboro, SAT etc.. would be interested in hosting exhibition as part of the conference?
Where are you trying to get funding?

Dear PD Community,
On behalf of the PD Convention Organizing Committee, I am pleased to announce that the second PureData convention will take place in Montréal Canada from August 21st to August 25th, 2007.
The organizing committee in Montréal consists of members from Artengine, Vidéographe, Société des arts technologiques, University of Ottawa, McGill University and Ontario College of Art and Design, along with a few independant artists. For the past few months members of the community from Montréal, Ottawa, New York and Graz have been discussing the organization of the convention and are currently working on defining the event.
In order to help us shape the convention WE NEED YOUR INPUT! If you attended the convention in Graz please give us some feedback, or, if you have suggestions as to what you would like to see at the next PD Convention please let us know. It would be helpful to get your thoughts on what was achieved through the first PD convention. Please post your input before August 16th, 2006.
Thanks in advance for your consideration,
Darsha Hewitt
