I'm happy to talk about the Aurora theme and singularitygs.

NYC Camp
Gaelan and I went to NYC Camp and I could give a quick report on the state of the Drupal NG (initiative to encourage young people who are interested in getting involved in the Drupal community).
There were also some great technical sessions, but rather than trying to summarize them I'd suggest taking a look at the session videos on the NYC Camp site (http://www.nyccamp.org).
