Hi, so many great topics! Would love to be there this year, but time and cost prevent me from coming. I would however be particularly looking forward to recordings of the PDF generator stuff or the synchronisation topic.
Wish all of you a great time, Hope that next year I can go again to WOWODC. And a teaser: maybe, just a maybe.... I am thinking of a successor to Learning the Wonders. Something like Learning more Wonders. Are there any particular topics you would like to have me include? My ideas go along the following: extensive ERD2W chapter(s), maybe some chapters devoted to particular Wonder Frameworks. Things like "What is there?", "How to use that stuff" Have fun with Wonder(ing) ---markus--- On 12.02.2014, at 17:02, Samuel Pelletier <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Everyone, > > Today is the last day for discounted WOWODC registration.
