Open Source CMS Conference

I've now officially been confirmed for the First Annual Open Source Content Management Systems Conference, in Zurich (March 21-22). The chances had been fairly high that I'd be there previously, but it wasn't confirmed.

I'm going to talk about using AxKit as a publishing engine (ie as a very useful backend/target system for a CMS, as well as a nifty app server, especially as content providers are now read-write). I believe that it can be interesting as I know of at least three people writing or about to write CMSs using AxKit as a backend (writing CMSs is all the rage now, templating systems and DBI wrappers are so 20th century my friends).

And of course, more than anything I can't wait to meet those cool people that I only know online that will be there. Lots of beer and geek talk in perspective!
