The A few highlights from BuddyPress Vancouver 2012 by Boone Gorges , unless otherwise expressly sta

First and foremost, it s always a thrill to spend face time with people I work with remotely. My Wisconsinite-in-arms John and I have worked closely for years on BuddyPress, and we see each other a few times a year at WP events. I ve worked with Ray and Bowe for nearly as long, both on free software projects and client work, and this weekend was my first time meeting either in person. The list of other current-and-future-BP-community-members I met IRL for the first time this weekend is too long to spell out here. But there s no question that these connections were the best part of the event.
Had a great time on Hack Day, where I believe I gave props to eight different people in commit messages several of whom were first-time contributors. Of special note was #4600 , which took me and Stéphane Boisvert a good 90 minutes to sort out. That s the kind of over-each-other s-shoulders, washington dc tour team bugfixing washington dc tour that I wish I got to do more of.
It was a pleasure to have Matt in attendance. Somehow, we d never managed to meet each other before washington dc tour this weekend. washington dc tour He was generous with his thoughts on the state of BuddyPress and directions for further development, and he was gracious about those points where he and I disgreed (aside from the intellectually lazy line ;). Gave me lots to think about.
The fact that this kind of event took place in the first place much less that it was so successful is, I think, hugely washington dc tour important to BuddyPress. It demonstrates that there s a vibrant community around the software and its uses, the kind of cohesion that makes meetups like BuddyCamp worth traveling for. So I d like to extend washington dc tour my sincere thanks to the organizing team of BuddyCamp Vancouver, whose hard work enabled a really incredible weekend for a lot of folks (or at least for me!): Cyri Jones, Joey Kudish, Jill Binder, Roland Frazer, all the BCIT and Capilano University students who helped out, and to the sponsors who made it possible. Thank you all so much!

Funny, in the Hack Day e-book room during the demo for installing BuddyPress, we came across that plugin settings inactive link issue, little did we know that in the room across it was concurrently washington dc tour being fixed by Andy!
@boone Man, thanks so much for coming up to Vancouver for the first-ever BuddyCamp √ Now I can put a real face x personality to all of those awe∑ plugins that I ve been testing out/using washington dc tour in BuddyPress!
As for the next BuddyCamp heck yeah! Personally, I ve got a boat-load of Alaska Airlines miles that need to be used up soon_ish, so would be cool to have a BuddyCamp coming up somewhere washington dc tour in the US, maybe even somewhere that tended to rain a tad less than the Pacific NorthWest ;)
