Boston BarCamp2

Is anybody who reads this blog going?

http://barcamp.org/BarCampBoston2

I think I may go and try to talk some people into using Erlang in their startups.

Update (2 hours later):

It looks like my job is going to be easier than expected. I checked out the at the BarCamp real time visual aggregator (http://barcamp.org/BarCampNewsVisualAggregator), and guess what I saw?


TECH. PROBLEMS

This experiment may cause to much traffic for pbwiki... to be improved...


Maybe yaws could be a better platform for serving the BarCamp aggregator: http://www.sics.se/~joe/apachevsyaws.html :)

Announcing ErlyWeb 0.5

I'm pleased to announce that ErlyWeb 0.5, the biggest and best release yet, is now available to download from erlyweb.org. There's a long list of improvements and fixes, of which you can read here.

As I indicated in a previous posting, ErlyWeb no longer supports app views. If you are upgrading from an earlier version, you should convert your app view to an html container and use the 'phased' return value from the app controller, as described in the updated documentation on the website.

ErlyWeb is still in alpha, and will likely remain this way until somebody has used it to build a complete production app. So, who will reach the finish line first? :)
