That was it, most of the WordCamp is over. Tomorrow is the Contributor Day, when we traditionally gather together to do small contributor tasks. For me, that’s usually translations and validation.
2 halls, 19 speakers, 300+ attendees who showed up (the exact number will remain unknown). Over 100 people stayed for the closing remarks. We had the latest check-in in the recorded history (under my watch), after 17:00. Food was good, coffee was good, snacks were plentiful. It was a lot more a web-in-the-AI-era conference than a WordPress one but this is what the speakers wanted to talk about. The team was strong and positive, true pleasure to work with.
A large amount of volunteer work was done by 3 teenagers from different schools, whose parents were organizers or speakers. I’m very thankful to have had the chance to work with them. Bright young people.
On top of being the lead of the Volunteers team, I was also responsible for a large pile of tote bags, that were Jetpack’s swag. I managed to get all of the tote bags picked up. I couldn’t do the same with our Jetpack stickers. Tote bags good, stickers – boo.
Thank you for your engaging comments about the conference. I am impressed with your responsibilities there and glad they worked out so well (except for the stickers). Maybe you will relax now, after.
