Now the dust has settled lets publish something regarding the iPad.
Me as a non-Apple believer (my iPod Nano died long time ago and I don't miss it but okay, I admit... I do use the Apple airport for wireless audio streaming and love it), will probably never buy either a Mac, an iPhone or an iPad but hey, th…

The idea of organizing workcamps (a multiple-day event to meet and get work done) was received well and we'll get busy pl…

For more of the technically minded, I am co founder of this conference that has been running in Prague for the past 5 years.
Basically top xml geeks come together to talk angle brackets and drink beer. Past speakers include Michal Kay (of SAXON fame), Norman Walsh (W3C TAG committee, former Sun XML Evangilist, and docbook inventor ..), Jeni Tennison (xslt luminary) and Robin Berjon (famous for many things, lately lots to do with mobile) .... more information can be found here…
