Thanks for the interview Biskup, and I’m psyched for Part Two. I love to hear anything I can about JADE.

I dropped the link into reddit/gaming but it got voted down :( (since reddit rgrd is dead). sigh

I think it would be great if Thomas could join the IRDC in Geneva in November. We could make a PhD celebration for him as well :-) And he could give a sneek peek of JADE :-) I’m sure that would bring even more people to come to IRDC :-)

That’d be great! Would be awesome if he could come.

Oh, and the rgrd reddit is not, dead people are just not posting on it very often.
I posted the interview there:

Thanks Ido, I debated posting it on /r/rgrd but it gets no traffic compared to /r/gaming, I wanted more people to see it :)
