The FormAPI 3 presentation went better than I expected -- I was slotted in the main room, which I wasn't expecting at all, so there were odd moments of disorientation as I manned the "panel discussion table" solo. All turned out well, though, and I think the important bits got through. I'm tinkering around with a presentaiton-sharing site to post the slides; hopefully it will work.
Also? We found a crepe bar. The crepe artiste named Elmer made us awesome crepes with things like lime chocolate, and talked smack about George W. Bush. He's from Holland and -- in case this wasn't emphasized enough -- made really awesome crepes.

Elmer or Edgar?
He seems to look more like an Edgar ;)

Belgique ?
The guy in the crepe bar (crêpe is French for pancake) in Barcelona is from Holland, and is wearing a t-shirt with 'Belgique' (french for 'Belgium') on it. How euro-international can you be ! :-)

Thanks for the presentations they were great.
Really enjoyed your talks right up to and including when the ewoks danced.
BTW I noticed that one attendee believes you are Earl Miles.

As someone who once wrote a horrible, broken, inflexible parameterized query-builder, I can say wholeheartedly that I am NOT Earl Miles. :D
Thanks! I'm glad that the talks were good. I'm hoping I can carve out some time in the next week or so to write up the new docs for the FAPI 3 workflow officially. Right now, the Upgrade Docs in the handbook list the new stuff as changes from FAPI 2, but don't describe it as a unified whole.

so...
when you first mentioned "crepe bar" i was assuming it to be a drupal computer-y term I was unfamiliar with. then i realized, "oh, CREPES!" as if i couldn't guess you would go for the novelty of that! mmmmmm...

Hahah!
Sir, it is very awesome to hear from you. Glad you found the post! I will definitely bundle up the photos I have of the Belgious fun we had and send them over. Or, at the very least, I can get them up on Flickr and point you to them. That might be easier as the original images are pretty huge...
Viva la Belgious!

pictures belgious
Hi there, like Elmer, I'd like to receive the pics by mail, we opened www.belgious.com and will soon add pics done by our customers or even funny pics of people stumbling and giggling in front of our unusual ice cream. I don't know if you see my e-mail when receiving this message, tell me. Thanks. Michel
