Visiting FOSDEM in Brussels, 23/24 February
Like in the years before, I (and some other colleagues from MySQL) will be attending FOSDEM 2008 in Brussels, Belgium on February 23rd and 24th.
The schedule is packed as usual and lists several MySQL-related topics and sessions:
- Main tracks: Unicoding With PHP 6 by Andrei Zmievski and the talk about CakePHP by Garrett J Woodworth are certainly relevant for web developers using PHP.
- Lightning talks: Jan Kneschke will speak about MySQL Proxy (not yet listed in the schedule, but likely between 15-16 o'clock on Sunday). Other sessions with MySQL relevance/relations are Kettle: extracting, transforming and loading data by Matt Casters and Alfresco: fresh document management approach by Philippe Dubois.
- DevRooms: The Drupal people have set up a DevRoom with a session track - Kris Buytaert will talk about Drupal and MySQL High Availability. Another DevRoom worth visiting will be the one organized by the Belgian Ruby User Group - they set up a Ruby on Rails Developer Room. My friends from the openSUSE project also have a great number of sessions lined up for their openSUSE Developer Room: several talks about the Build Service (proudly powered by MySQL) and a session about the openSUSE redirector (a tool to set up and manage a content delivery network with MySQL) by Peter Poeml.
If you also plan to attend, please ping me if you would like to meet!
