We’ll do our best Bernie but considering we have less than half the email addresses of the attendees, it may prove a challenge! I’ll put the call out.

It would be handy to get the phone numbers of attendees who would like to make some short comments about BarCamp Ireland so the PR students at Tipperary Institute could do a quick ring-around and make a podcast of the afters lingering behind BarCamp Ireland. We do the ring-around if we can get the numbers sent via text msg to +353 86 827 828 7.

Hey Bernie,

There stills seems to be big enthusiasm after the event and I wouldn’t be surprised if a BarCampCork comes from the grassroots sooner not later.

What do you mean exactly by the Round-up idea? We are already collecting as many of the PPTs as we can. Any other things you’d like to see? More reviews?

Good to know re your PPT. I’ll pop it up now.

Would you consider running another tech event in Cork but during an event like the Film Festival? That way the certifiable non-geek partners would have a compelling reason to visit the Rebel County.

Would you consider wikifying a “Best of BarCamp Ireland” round-up for those interested but unable to hear the real thing? Even if you were in the venue all day, you would not hear all the presentations or meet all the attendees.

Ah thanks Elly. But without the initiative of Fergus and then Damien and all the co-ordination of sponsors and suppliers by Walter, it would never have happened.

Conor, I’ve said it elsewhere, but “Thank You” for organising a brilliant BarCamp, I’m so looking forward to the next one…
