I am sad! I bought my ticket, T shirt, and was all set to go - but then I got pulled into doing upgrades this weekend for work.
Have a great time and please share more pictures!
Best,

I realize I mucked up the first post. Unfortunately I can't edit it.
Here are some more pictures. There is one of the main area, one of the exibit hall area (you can't see it all from the picture, but you can see the ThinkPenguin booth), there is one of Eben Moglen's keynote, RMS, and and the awards ceremony. Unfortunately I do not have one of Rubén's Trisquel 7 speech. I was sadly left "holding down the fort" at the ThinkPenguin booth during his speech but, ThinkPenguin's CTO was much appreciative (he was there helping out too). The video camera didn't work at this time and so unfortunately none of us will be able to watch it (unless somebody else recorded it, please speak up if so, I'd really like to see it still). There were also camera problems at Eblen's keynote so you may not be able to see it all either.
Also note that these pictures were generally taken during the early morning hours before the event started or in-between. The event itself was packed with more people than ever before (from what I understand).
Enjoy!
Thank you!
The one with Moglen is pretty nice, I'd like to push it to Wikimedia Commons. Do I get a license to do so?

Damm it. So we will not be able to listen to Ruben's conference? Seriosly?
I wanted to hear to what he had to say so badly.
Could someone make a little summary for the rest? Please?
NOTE: I know the fact that I was a little childish while I was writing this comment but I is hard for me to hide my feelings about this situation.
Thank you.
Yeah, unfortunately you're right. Unless someone who was present at the event would be able to summarize his talk (or Rubén does publish an article himself), we will never be able to find out what he had to say.
I saw no other cameras in the room, so it seems unlikely that there will be full recording of the event.
He went over the history of Trisquel, which you can see in his slides. Then he went on to the future. Some of the things that I recall are him saying that he's now able to work on Trisquel full time and that historically work on the next version typically did not start until the corresponding Ubuntu version was released but, with 7, work is starting early.

This is terrific news!
That's good that work has started. Btw, since there is now going to be an "Ubuntu Gnome" release with 14.04, is he going to be using this as a base instead of the standard Ubuntu one? Of course Ruben may or may not use Gnome Shell, but the stuff he likes (fallback mode) is there:
