KOnference - The London Kohana Conference 2010
This location is shown only to members
We've been talking about having a day-long meetup for a while folks, and this is it.
Saturday the 15th May will be a day of talks on a variety of Kohana-related topics, as well as time to meet and exchage ideas with fellow Kohana developers.
We have presentations on HMVC, scaling, deployment, code migration, templating, prototyping, ORM, Gearman, and a Kohana 3 Masterclass from Woody Gilk.
Some of the core devs will be there, including Woody (Shadowhand) and Sam (Samsoir), as well as a variety of faces and lurkers from the forums.
For more information download the KOnference Information PDF, and to secure your place please pay in advance via the PayPal link on this page.
See you there :)

Would also love to hear from Woody something about how he sees his and other devs roles in the framework and how he intends to manage the dev team and the community contributions in the future.

Leo and Rob's presentations look really interesting btw. And Dave, I'd be interested in what you have to say!

Glad you're interested in my talk Paul, will have to think about how to make it interesting now! Might combine it with Rob's as we're both from Mukuru, though his will be more from a user perspective and I'll probably delve into more technical info. And I would definitely like to hear more about Jelly, and in particular it's differences from Sprig and ORM. Seems to me from the forums I'm not the only one!

I have been thinking of a KO template engine. Would Dave please see if we can get some one to talk about that as well please.

Nelson, I wont be doing a talk but check out Twig. It's maintained by Fabien Potencier (Symfony creator) and has some cool features such as template inheritance, automatic escaping and new syntax. You can find a module for it here: http://github.com/jonathangeiger/kohana-twig

What's going on with this? We have a potential sponsor for the venue, but I haven't heard a peep from Dave in weeks.

Hmm, I didn't realise that the whole "what did you think of the meetup thing" went in the sidebar... hehe

Haha Matt, your innermost feelings are aired in public!

Hehe, well I just wasn't expecting that bit to be made public. I would probably have written less if I'd known, but I'm not ashamed at all ;)

Rob BurrellAs the owner of an e-commerce platform that two years ago would have seriously battled to find developers into Kohana, it was really encouraging to meet all y'all and really see the framework taking hold. Mukuru.com will always have it's doors open to Kohana developers who are interested in remote work or jumping knee-deep into our Cape Town 'stint-based' projects. Keep in comms :-) rob at mukuru.com skype mannfriday

Robert-Jan de DreuI loved to be able to share my own insights with other people. It was great. To bad we had to haste back to The Netherlands. I would have liked to stay a bit longer. Next Konference will be in the Netherlands.!!!!

James JeffersonHuge thanks to Dave for organising a great day, Woody for coming all the way and for creating such a great framework, to all the speakers for making it the successful event it was and to all the other guys who came. I gotta say, very nice to meet everyone - so much experience, a vast array of knowledge and a great bunch. Feeling altogether inspired. Best wishes to all and hope to meet you again soon.

Woody GilkIt was fantastic to meet so many smart people using Kohana! Big thanks to David for sponsoring part of the event, and a big thanks to Dave for organizing it. See you all next time!

MattIt was a really enlightening event - it's such a relief to see that there ARE ACTUALLY REAL PEOPLE OUT THERE and that I'm not just imagining things! Overall it would be nicer if it had gone on longer - I'm already missing it - possibly a two day event with a codathon is in order, or at the very least, a one day event with a codathon. Either way, a codathon would be quite interesting! The lanyards were an awesome idea (I realise they were borrowed from another conference, but who cares, our ones were COOL!). One thing I would definitely suggest though would be to put the "user's" nick on the tag as I personally found it very useful to link nicks with faces.

Mathew DaviesHad a great time, the talks were great as well as the people. Didn't really have enough time to connect with everyone as much as I would have liked. Still learnt a lot of cool stuff and I plan to start applying it to my future projects.

My presentation was a suggestion only - would be interested to know what people are really interested in. Jelly may be slightly interesting but I'm not sure it will be mature enough to be the subject of a whole presentation. Anyone have ideas about alternatives?
