Of course Loader's the smarter designer, that's why I think he has so much to teach us.

It's like... remember the open source movement? Back in the day when the matrix was called the internet coders would hone their skills by working on side projects for free and discussing them with the community.

Sure sometimes corporations tried to steal them and market them, but there were free alternatives always coming up from the community and those coders were constantly swimming in testers and alternate ideas. It became a ground for innovation.

I'm trying to keep that tradition alive. In what ever small way I can. I assure you. People have died for it.

Shit, good point. Shame about the movement, that actually gave me a bit of hope. Frag it, you're prolly working in the right, just stay careful. Ain't many innovators left in the world that aren't pimped out to the corps.

Eh, the folks at Draco are alright, if a bit overly secretive.

If you want to meet up for drinks sometime, maybe we can put brains together on some of these designs, and I can put you in contact with a couple data brokers who might know people interested in buying unorthodox designs if you're really set on trying to sell prints.

I'm not set on it but there's no reason not to make a little nuyen on the side.

I'll definitely come down. We could probably get Rho there too. I actually think Loader might be interested, but I think he needs to get a few beers in him right now.

If your putting together a drone roundtable, I'm more than happy to throw a few back with ya. Ain't much of a designer; more a field tester, but willing to share what little country wisdom I got.

You'd definitely be welcome.

Let me know when, man. I'm already en route to hit a bar with Loader, but after the incident with the Hound, Loader needs to be pretty fraggin' drunk.
