WordCampNYC 2009 Recap

This past weekend, I had the opportunity to attend WordCamp NYC 2009.  Overall, it was a blast but there are some specific sessions and people I'd like to point out as particular stand outs.

First, Raphael Mudge - a local DCian - talked about his tool After the Deadline.  It's a plugin that ties into TinyMCE to perform in-context spelling and grammar checking.  I haven't had a chance to look at it in more than passing, but it looks impressive.  And for some reason, I ended up on his "The 10 People you Meet" post.  It's probably because I asked him to speak at DCPHP next month.

WordCampNYC – Nov 14-15We've been keeping it pretty quiet so far, but with this latest announcement, it's time to start talking:

At present, I am leading up the interoperability & cross-platform efforts within web2project.

While this doesn't seem like much to many of our users - after all, we support Apache and Mysql very well - it fits with our vision of the system.  We want web2project to be the sort of tool where any organization can deploy it to start getting their project management operations straightened out.  Regardless, this announcement is not the point of this post.
