A colleague and I have just confirmed our slot at QCon, speaking on our experience with implementing architectures in the real world. I find this terribly exciting. Others will find it either incomprehensible or deeply dull: my friends, I love you, but it’s your loss 
This is obviously not your fault, but it’s not a very ethnically or sexually diverse bunch of speakers..
Congrats again!
So you’ll be following the BBC Forge guy, hey… if you want me to find some dirt on him, in case his architecture turns out to be better than yours, let me know
