Thanks for the great Wordcamp summary, Doug! It is by far the most concisely informative summary I have seen to date. We are in the beginning stages of planning a Wordcamp here in Minneapolis…can’t wait!

Stephane is every bit as affable and nice a person as one could ever hope to encounter.

Aaaw, thanks Doug. Right back at ya!

@Mark:
Sounds like you’re really grabbing that Put This On bull by the horns. *grin*

@Steve:
Many thanks to you and Jane for organizing the conference. In re: your point, I think the eventual WordPress Foundation will help (at least a little bit) with the confusion, as the .org stuff should then exist under that umbrella and allow the project to distance itself from Automattic, at least branding-wise, to an extent not possible today.

I really appreciate the recap. It absolutely astonishing how much you can miss when you’re one of the co-organizers!

Though I didn’t get to sit in on a lot of sessions, I did get to speak to a lot of beginners, and I’d like to add something to your list. It seems there is still a lot of confusion about WordPress.com and .org, and it might be something future WordCamps want to address.

Overall I had a great time, and enjoyed meeting all of you.

Matt jokingly refers to a blazer over an open-collared dress shirt paired with jeans as his signature look

Pfft. Matt so crazy! It’s only like the official uniform of successful web geeks. It says “successful” with the blazer and “down-to-earth” with the jeans.

Matt’s true signature look is brightly colored shoes. :-)
