Day one of the Drupal Con in Szeged, Hungary. Morten and I made the initial keynote speech by Dries & Co. Well, almost. We were in the door about 4 seconds, there was some clapping, and we left.

The famous starting keynote of DrupalCon!
After an official introduction by Gábor and Kristof (Thank you for noticing the 7% rule has been improved to 10%! see image) we came to know that Belgium attendees are represented with 3% of the whole conference! It’s not much but I expect it to grow! After this it was time to get a short look on the Drupal development project and get information about where it is heading.

Day 2 started out with the Awesome Testing Party, which consisted of a room full of people in pairs learning how to write automated tests. I had hoped for at least 10-20 people there. There were 80+ (!) and together we enjoyed delicious Hungarian pancakes and chocolate. I still have yet to thoroughly review the results, but as of this moment there are 24 of the testing issues bumped, several with patches that need review, and one that even got committed during the session! :)

My first Drupalcon and it definately isn’t the last! The city was lovely, the venue was excellent, what more can I say?
The intro and redesign keynotes were top-notch, and I was quite surprised about the big amount of quality BoF’s.
It was a great event with a great community.

See you all on the next one.
