So, luckily, my current employer will pay and make arrangements for me to attend one major conference each year. Last year I attended Mysqlconf, the year before, Zend Con.
Which should I goto this year? Here are the things to consider:
- I don’t have a US passport – so it has to be in the US – Unless there is enough lead time to get a passport (how much time does that take anymore these days? Do I need to wear the mark of the beast now? *squints at Real-ID*)
- It has to be something web related (yah very clear Aaron – thanks. Microsoft makes front page and windows Live search – does that make them web related? *sigh* This means web programming language, analysis or tool based. I don’t know how more broad ones like ‘future of web apps’ types would work…)
- I’d like it to be focused on open source (oracle fans, be damned!)
So – it’s pretty simple. Any suggestions?
I absolutely think you should go to the WMCPA conference in beautiful Lake Geneva. Pehaps you could rumba around the town with a table for fun? That would really impress those RPG programmers… ; )
I ended up going to the WMCPA conference. I also am going to be going to the OSCon I think.
