From our frenemies over on Reddit:

Is anyone on DT planning to attend? This is only 20 minutes from my house!

Sounds interesting, but...

Buying, selling, and trading: Das has respectfully asked that attendees do not bring competitor brand keyboards to sell, I believe this is a reasonable request. Artisans, accessories, and keycaps are welcome. I know I have a few sets to sell.

That's a pain. What's the point in a meetup if you can't show off your cool keyboards?

Donation from /u/jtm_sea, extras and rejects from his Goomba design testing. Will be sold as blind bags, $1 for two caps, one functional, one decorative.

If you do go, would you mind picking me up one of these please? They sound very cool.

XMIT, I've been out of town for the past week and missed the initial announcement; however, it was just advertised in my daily Massdrop email. It looks like the RSVP is full, but this is 5 minutes from my house so I am curious.

If you decide to go, drop me a message. It amuses me to think that if you showed up with your collection it would go from meetup to a full-blown KeyCon from your inventory alone.

Here's the massdrop announcement link (login required):

Reminder to the few Austin folks in the area, that this is today!

I'm bringing an FSSK, a V60 with Salmon Alps, and an HHKB (Topre) with a PBT space bar. Not much I know but it's what I can fit. I may someday make a HiPro TLK board which could be a regular at keyboard meetups.
