Fall , Winter and Spring Conference Season 2011 - 2012

Patrick posted his upcoming conference schedule for the next couple of months.
as you can see there are a comple of overlapping conferences :)

Conferences I'm speaking at or likely to attend are:

  • The first week of October I`ll be in the Valley , I`ll be late for Jenkinsconf but I hope to pick up some events while I`m there.. suggestions are welcome , I`m also heading back to Europe earlier than planned so I will miss BadCamp :( ...
  • Devopsdays Goteborg, Sweden : October 14,15 - The yearly Europe devops event is happening in Goteborg this time. It's going to be really exciting this time , as the theme is inclusive. Eploring the boundaries of devops, I`m once again in the organization of this conference.
  • T-Dose 2011, The Technical Dutch Open Source Event, on 5 and 6 november 2011 , I will be talking again about my experiences with complex Puppet setups
  • Citconf , London: November 11-12 - All you ever wanted to know about Continuous Integration. Period, registered, haven't booked flights yet.
  • Cloudcamp Belgium: November 21 - I'm looking forward to this year's event, as there will likely more practioners and less marketing folks.
  • Lisa 2011, Boston, US, I`m giving an Invited talk titled , Devops: The past and futre are here, It's just not evenly distributed (yet), and I`ll be on a panel titled What Will Be HOt Next Year, really looking forward to this one :)
  • Fosdem.org will take place on 4 and 5 February 2012 , and as every year since it inception I'll be there
  • The UKUUG rebranded to FlossUK , they are hosting their Annual Spring conference from 20th to 22nd March in Edinburgh , given their refound focus it will be even more interresting !
  • And as announced earlier this week Loadays.org will take place in Antwerp again this year on 31/3/2012 and 1/4/2012 , as the previous years I`m co organizing this conference

And yes, I do work from time to time. Just that these conferences are a great way to capture and share new ideas. All worth it!
