[EuroOSCON] Conference Day 1

The first day of the actual conference is about to start with a collection of keynotes. Last night, Damian Conway gave a great talk titled "Fun with Dead Languages", where he started by showing some Lisp and ended up programming in Latin. Fun stuff.

Later: Today was a really intense day. I attended sessions on Apache Derby, Apache Harmony, SmartFrog and Drools. In addition, I had a very interesting hallway talk with r0ml, chatted to the guys from SpikeSource and moderated my BOF. Over 20 people showed up - including Doug Levin from Blackduck and Peter George from Logicalware. We had an interesting discussion on a variety of topics all centered around the Open Source business in Europe/US theme. Thanks to all who came!
