Hi All It's now about 2 weeks until ApacheCon North America, which is taking place Sunday 24th Feb - Thursday 28th in Portland. Quite a few people from our project will be there, and we'd love to see you all!
If you haven't already registered for the conference, then we've some good news - we've managed to snag a 20% discount for you! To register with the 20% off, use code PMC or the link http://acna13.eventbrite.com/?discount=PMC To see what the talks are, including the ones relating to Cassandra, please see the schedule -http://na.apachecon.com/schedule/ Would you like to get more involved in the project? A number of people will be at the (Free!) Hackathon on the Monday. Ours will focus on CQL drivers, but if you would like to learn more about contributing, get some mentoring on a patch, or help collaborate on some fixes, then by all means come join us. If you'd like to come, whether you can make it to the main conference or not, the details are on the ApacheCon wiki: http://wiki.apache.org/apachecon/HackathonNA13 Also talking of free, there will be a BarCamp on the Sunday. This is open to everyone, Portland natives and conference-goers alike, and should be a great chance to share new ideas and learn about existing + upcoming projects. To sign up to come to that, or learn more, it's http://wiki.apache.org/apachecon/BarCampApachePortland Hopefully see some of you in Portland in a few weeks! --------------------------------------- Thanks -- Eric Evans Acunu | http://www.acunu.com | @acunu
