Let's remember *why* these community conventions were organised...
because Apple, who used to offer various training in WO even
internationally at one stage has decided to offer very little.
Now it seems to me, given their WO direction, that it was good for
them to consolidate and concentrate on the frameworks - rather
than the tools etc. Having a vibrant community for your technology
is not the enemy you're making it out to be.
IMHO, nobody is making any enemies here.
Of course.
One could ague that Apple is recognizing the community and
adjusting its convention strategy accordingly. Why have WO sessions
at WWDC if such content are much better addressed at WOWODC?
I'm just making the point that Apple is not responding to the
community's drive to run conventions by pulling back - they pulled
back beforehand. Pascal didn't organise WOWODC because he wanted to
duplicate efforts. But certainly Apple being involved in WOWODC is a
good thing.
You're right, in 2007 it was organized to complement WWDC since for a
couple of years, WWDC only had a couple of WO sessions. In 2008, we
gave a voice to third-party frameworks because we know that those
topics will never be talked about at WWDC. For 2009, well we saw that
WWDC is really the iPhone show (not much IT sessions not related to
the iPhone too, it's not just WO who don't get some WWDC love).
About teamwork for WOWODC, well I prefer not to comment on that... But
I would love that Apple put back WO session in WWDC so that I can get
back the 120 hours of time I have put in WOWODCs in 2009... _______________________________________________
