Thank you for the kind word, but please allow me to offer a little more detail about the shoes I wear. As a native Floridian, local hacker and community contributor; we are struggling to develop a better ecosystem in our area. And when I say struggling I mean: fighting to find a consistent membership to attend meetups, traveling long distances to support each other's projects and groups, coordinating events and efforts to maximize exposure for EACH event we organize (since the available attention in our local market is spread VERY thin), and working hard to gain the attention of other communities/groups/media to keep growing. I can guarantee that the amount of effort we have to invest to get things accomplished here in South Florida as compared to that in more successful communities (SF, NY, Boston, Austin, etc) is a ratio that not in our favor. So when Calicanis suggests to one of SuperConf's media partners that the infographic is misleading and ignores the efforts that Auston made to correct the situation, that's not just another injustice by Jason Calicanis; that's him using his connections in the valley to defeat a small competing conference's attempts for exposure.
