Does this make it the largest hackathon ever?

Incredible that they've found a way to fund the attendance costs for everyone from travel to food.

On a sidenote, lot's of awesome stuff coming out of Ann Arbor. Rapt.fm was born at a Startup Weekend there (http://techcrunch.com/2013/09/05/rapt-fm-beta-public-launch/).

This is insane!

Last year they had an entire floor in a massive building dedicated to sleeping hackers!!

The fact that it's in The Big House should count as a +300 people.

Looks like an awesome event. I'm excited to see what comes of it.
