Ok, so where to start?
Right, the Greeks did everything to bring our Motto to life, and what can I
say? The were very successful with it! Everyone had lots of fun during the
Conference, be it in conversations on the hallways or in the talks, everyone
was in a good mood, the atmosphere was very good and I'm sure this wasn't only
because of the very nice decoration and the pools to cool down outside at the
beach bar.
This years location was the Olympic Museum in Thessaloniki, Greece and the
Conference was solely organized by the local community, therefor I want to give
a big kudos to Kostas and Stella, who were the main Organizers together with
Henne. Of course there were many more, for example Carlos who did the main
portion of the Conference Artwork as well as all the Volunteers, it was a
pleasure to work alongside all of you to make this Conference Rock!
Aside from all the awesome People there have been some nice new things I think
should be kept up, one of them were the Team Reports where all the teams of the
Project were able to present what they did during the last year and what are
their plans for the coming one. Another thing was the Streaming of every
talk and while this in itself wasn't new there has been a nice addition: this
year we had IRC channels where people watching the streams could give immediate
feedback and ask questions to the presenters.
