Thank you to Pascal for all the work he has done in making the arrangements for WOWODC. It was a successful conference on all accounts!
It was great to meet up with fellow WO developers from around the world. As I stated at the conference, I'm willing to put together a profile of all the members (companies and/or individuals) of the WO community that are interested in participating. What is the purpose? To showcase the WO community and their cool/interesting IT solutions. Dr. Daniel Faber from Salt Lake City ( http://www.spinalinterventions.com/) has already volunteered to be the first one to provide us with a profile. What a great story; a doctor that wrote his own WO solution for his clinic.
I think that the first step would be to agree on what information the profile should contain. Alternatively, I can go away and propose what information to gather and present to all on this list or to only those interested. Do people want to discuss this on the list or on a separate email thread?
Now is a great opportunity to send out a press release, or something like it, or at least an email to Kif Leswing @ Business Insider ( http://www.businessinsider.com/apple-officially-discontinues-webobjects-2016-5), talking about key presentations at the conference, comments participants have and perhaps highlight a few WO solutions. The point I think is that even though WO may be dead to Apple, we are moving forward and we've discussed a number of ideas about where we want to go and how to do it. (I'm willing to put this all together) What do YOU think?
FYI, for those of you in the Toronto area there is a group that meets once a month to discuss WO stuff, iOS stuff, IT stuff in general and then discuss more 'stuff' with a drink in hand. Here is the link to the meet up group:
Next meeting is July 12th. I hope to see you there.
Calven
