Hey all,

I will be presenting two talks at Fosdem 2010 (6-7 February, Brussels, Belgium):

  • Wt::Dbo, on Sunday 11.00 - 11.15 (lightning talk)

  • JWt on Sunday 12.30 - 13.00 (Java dev-room)

It would be nice to take the opportunity to meet with old and new Wt/JWt enthousiasts and meet up for beers on Saturday? Let me know if you are up for it (in comments or by email) and we will arrange for a nice pub in our capital.

Update Let’s meet up at the beer event on Friday!

I hope many anonymous will be there, but I suggest we discuss on the mailing list the plan.

Please consider recording these talks, if technically or copyright-wise possible. It would be nice to have them in a slideshow version.

I think all the talks at FOSDEM are recorded, and slides are made available (at least that is what they tell us). If not, I will certainly make the slides available !

That's good news. All the best for your presentation.

I like Wt::Dbo very much and I'd love to see in growing. In case SOCI won't be accepted, what would you do? I didn't hear any whereabouts on adopting SOCI to Boost.

I have been talking to the SOCI people and they seem to have given up getting SOCI into Boost and claim to not see any advantage in it. I still believe SOCI is currently the best option even if their API is lacking a few features, they said they would accept patches for it. And they are eager to get packaged by distributions.

On the MySQL side things have not progressed very well either, and there it is because of legal problems: we would need a commercial license (which is free) for their driver SDK, but that license does not longer allow us to talk about the GPL license for MySQL. The way out there seems to use libdrizzle instead of the official C/C++ APIs.

I guess we are open for suggestions :-)
