Etc...

Just to make it clear - I do not say I am against some other 
formats, web conferences, digital meetups, or whatever. I am just 
saying that there are people who still prefer DConf as it is 
(was). If a group of D enthusiasts want to try something else, by 
all means do it! But do not try to be a partybreaker like Joakim 
and whenever someone mentions DConf he starts talking crap...

I see absolutely NO problem at all if there is a regular DConf, 
and some other forms of communication that Joakim, or you, prefer!

This said - can't wait to attend the DConf in the UK!
