Not speaking for the BoD, if someone wants to do this, I say go for it. The BoD needs to decide if Quelab as a group would participate.

We get bombarded with press releases daily. Our inbox overflows with brand new iPhone cases and cheap LED manufacturers in china. We generally have no interest in sharing obvious product advertisement with you. However, some people understand what we're interested in. Redbull gets it. They're embracing hackers and running contests that promote DIY/hacking. Last year, we saw some cool results from their contest (http://hackaday.com/2011/07/14/red-bull-creation-contest-results/) .

So, we're happy to announce that this year, they are doing it again (http://www.redbullusa.com/creation) ! Only this time, the contest will come to the location of the entrants! If you qualify to be one of the final teams involved, they'll set up to stream live from your home workshop/hackerspace for the contest. You might be thinking, "aren't you just advertising for red bull?", we feel that as long as they're promoting hacking, they're advertising for us!

You can catch the details after the break.
