I had a great time at SANDcamp this weekend. It was great to catch up with friends I hadn’t seen in a while and I met lots of cool people. Most of the time I was trying to suck them into the Drupal community. 😉 My keynote was “It’s the people, stupid!” and I’ve attached the slides here. I had great feedback from the presentation and we had some recurring jokes from it running through the weekend. I also want to thank everyone that stopped by the documentation sprint. That was a blast. We got lots of new eyes on the docs and I got most of the demo site for the new core Help system patch set up (more on that in a day or two).
The San Diego team did an amazing job: great venue, lots of snacks and beverages, and the sessions covered a huge range of material. Of course, the general socializing and talking shop was a blast too. The peeps at the camp showed me a fun time and I’m definitely looking forward to getting back to San Diego again. Huge shout out to Joel and Beck Farris who let me crash at their place, drove me around and generally made my stay there rock mightily. I just don’t believe that San Diego is really sunny all the time since it was unusually cloudy for most of my visit. The locals were cracking me up by pulling out winter coats for the 60 F weather. I’m headed home today to below freezing temps and snow. 😉
