Oooh, they might eliminate walk-in camping later on down the road?

I would say probably not, just push it back behind additional streets.

If the event grows in size they will move the site of the event further north onto the playa. At least that's what I understand from the permit approval thingie.

Very interesting, but for anyone interested, the adobe reader is very clunky and bloated. There is a very nice standalone, freeware alternative:
Foxit Reader is small (the download is less than 1MB), so it downloads quickly. It doesn't need any installation, so you can start to run it as soon as you've downloaded it.

And It starts up immediately, so you don't need to wait for an annoying "Welcome" screen to disappear.

Foxit Reader is extremely easy to use, just double click it to start and then click open button to open your PDF document. If you want to print, click on "Print" button. If you want to change the page layout for printing, select "Print Setup" from "File" menu.

Foxit Reader runs on Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP/2003. It is provided by Foxit Software Company free for non-commercial use. This product is provided AS IS without any explicit or implicit warranty. Please see the End User License Agreement.

I really like the layout aswell, but being a virgin to the event and the scene, just ignore me :P

Thank you,
Joe

Some of us were wondering if "communities" is the new way of referring to villages.

walk-in is the low income slum, communities are the security zoned provincial working class areas, theme camps are the superior class of privilege.

I,m willing to bet "communities" are areqas such as AEZ, Hushville, Kidsville, etc. They've been listed as theme camps before, but are more community than interactive themed areas.

The communities are, indeed, space where some of the villages will be
mapped this year.
