Absolutely.. Steven, Marc, Bruno, well done and many thanks from the
Aussies for organising the GetTogether and your hospitality in
Gent! Awesome! :)

It was really great to meet everyone in person and talk at what
seemed light-speed about the latest hot topics :)

Thanks to all the speakers too for some great presentations!
Looking forward to the next GetTogether.

Cheers,

Marcus

If I may, I would just like to add my voice to this chorus of gratitude by 
thanking Steven, Marc and Bruno (the Outerthought crew) for putting on 
such a fantastic and brilliantly organised event! 

This event has gone a long way in helping bring the cocoon cummunity
even closer together and proves once again that email contact is no
substitute for face to face contact.

Thanks a lot Guys :)

Regards,
Michael Melhem

Ps Wow ... Ghent is a very beautiful town!

People _seriously_considering_to_actually_work_together_with_me_ on the 
next edition, please subscribe yourself using 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] (listname inspired by the 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list). Everybody is free to join, etc etc - but 
joining and doing anything else than lurking comes with a price...:

I know "seriously considering to actually work together with me" 
sounds quite heavy but to be honest, I just experienced the amount of 
work involved setting up this kind of semi-professional, but budget-wise 
still manageable event, and I'd rather like fewer people who are really 
willing to help out but then also are prepared to donate actual time to 
it (inside normal working hours), rather than lots of volunteers for 
discussion, ranting and whatelse, but no actual work being carried out.

Pretty negative, I know, but that's the experience from also being 
steering member of the xmlbelux user group, which conference & 
exhibition tomorrow are attracting only half as many people as our 
gettogether, even though there was a much bigger working budget. This is 
partly because of quite a few of us steering members who didn't have 
real bandwidth when the time was there for doing things.

Matthew and I did some talking (too little) yesterday, and at least the 
two of us -who might appear as having a vested commercial interest in 
this kind of events-, are pretty much convinced that getting bigger 
would be nice, but that we weren't willing to give up the formula and 
authenticity of this event for that matter. Hence remaining a free event 
if at all possible, hence having sponsors to carry the weight of the 
budget, but still not being prepared for making a commercial event out 
of it (and I regard ApacheCon as being a commercial event for that 
matter - with sponsor speaking slots etc etc).

Hope this establishes a good working spirit for next year's event.

Exactly what I wanted to say.

It's amazing how people that never met for real become familiar to each 
other in minutes - if not seconds. This means this community is very 
strong. And it has now turned into a group of friends.

Hope to see much more people next year to have more friends !

Many, many thanks to the small-but-powerful Outerthought team for 
organizing this.

So, everyone who couldn't attend will get very frustrated and depressed
by looking at these nice pictures. Which means: an even bigger GetTogether
next time ;) (And actually I'm a little bit depressed because we had to
leave yesterday before this interesting looking social evening event...
grumpf).

It was really a *great* event with an absolutely perfect organization.
So, again, many thanks to Steven, Marc, Bruno, their wifes and
everyone who helped to make *the event* happening.
