WordCamp NY is now in full-bore {planning, scheduling, registration} mode. I'm providing
local support in terms of Sun office space and some logistics, and I'm looking forward to hearing
about everything from CMS to spam reduction. Thanks to the GSE Communications
Divas for working the details (and using "hygroscopic" in a sentence!)
Top question I'm asked when I mention this: What does WordPress have to do with Sun? Primary: WordPress is written in PHP and uses mySQL as a content and metadata storage engine. Every WordPress author is indirectly a Sun product consumer. Secondary: Wordcamp is about blogging style and structure, and that's directly aligned with the culture of transparency and public discourse that we've been living for several years.
