Right on que! I was just saying that attracting Devs was the priority in terms of publicity and here you are getting on with it. Great to hear and good luck.
I hope everyone will think about ways to do this themselves as well as help out with these conferences.
I think the timing is right to get developers interested, and I think this is very effective use of resources because each new developer who gets something working will show their achievement around and spread the word further. Nice and viral!
It also means we will have more things ready to go when we want to shout loudly and get end users trying things out, show it off to journalists and make a big noise about it all.
