First off, I would like to thank everyone that attended. The FanFest went better than we expected and looks like it is something that will be repeated in the future.
As for what happened, there were a number of presentations by members of the Dev team covering the past, present and future of EVE. EVE has come a long way since the words "Let's make a computer game" were said in a living room a few years ago. The "WOW!" factor peaked twice, the first when the trailer for EVE Online Exodus (formerly Shiva) was shown. The second was when LeKjart ran a Kali cluster on his laptop and demonstrated atmospheric flight.
The evening ended with the premiere of Quafe and the crowning of the Quafe Queen. I apologize for not having the name of the winner handy, my recollection of events from last night got a little hazy after Oveur passed me a rather strong glass of Quafe Ultra. I'll get the information and post it, or get one of the Devs to post it.
The Exodus trailer will be available online in the very near future.
As I said before, I want to thank all the players that attended the FanFest and I'm looking forward to FanFest 2005.

It was a shameless trick of Quafe to try to influence CONCORD representatives to ignore the electorial shennigans going on in Gallente Space.
Booze and Broads indeed.
{Glad it was a success. I hope to attend such future events as I may.)
CONCORD should issue an apology to all the citizens of strong moral fiber and firmly establised family values that had to witness this torrid display of wanton political chicanery.
Remember, Don't let them steal the Vote!

Kieron, your recollection of events is indeed shady, as it has been Quafe Ultra Plus that was passed to you, and it hasn't been Oveur, more like the CEO of Echelon Corp if my recollection works correct (my glass was the one you mixed and hasn't been that strong, tho ). /edit: I doubt that he actually remembers that as well, what a bloody good party  /edit
Well, I'm off to find a place for that signed Quafe bottle (that's usually not so me to hunt for autograms, but heck, that stuff was tasty and it seems that it affected me nevertheless in an odd way, but now that I got it... what else to do with that one :P)

Was a fantastic weekend, Kieron, thanks to you and everyone who helped make it what it was.
The Quafe Ultra was indeed a rather superb drink.
The Kali preview almost had me wetting my pants, and the Exodus Trailer *did* make me wet my pants.
Again, congratulations, and I look forward to next years fest.
It was great meeting all you guys, even if a few of you were so Quafed that you could barely string a sentence together :)

Quafe and Vodka was the drink of the night, and it went unbelievably well. so well in fact, that by the end of the night I had trouble walking. (especially when trying to give a dev a piggyback around the bar). I won't go any further than that right now though.
I have a few pictures, and I'll post them up tomorrow or tuesday.

Dr. Kjartan (can't remember his eve-nick) showed us a Kali client he was running on the laptop.
This included planetary flight. I think the video will be released at a later date.

does beg the question - will we go splat in kali if we warp through planets and many of the ships dont look errr fit for atmospheric flight. What about orbital bombardment!?

Ive suggested several times that warping had to go 'around planets and structures' still in a straight line, so sometimes it would take more than one jump to go from A to B
