I was hoping the team could give us some schedule of activity planned for Siggraph?

Is the following tentative list more of less conclusive?
1. Jules Urbach scheduled to do a talk with Nvidia - http://www.nvidia.com/object/siggraph2014-theater.html
2. Otoy booth - ?
3. Announcements for cloud stuff (and Brigade?)

Anything else that is not a secret? Any other talks / sessions scheduled?

Thanks,
Seeker

What I thought was interesting was this tweet from AMD yesterday:

Looks like OTOY will be one of the features companies at AMD's video presentation wall at SIGGRAPH. Wondering what a CUDA-only rendering engine and AMD share in common?

Don't forget about Brigade.

True. Brigade would probably be the first place we'd see new technology tested on. Then Octane.

That would just feel... weird somehow.

But I won't complain.
