We are at the Vancouver Joomla Day

We have around 120+ people in the room which is more than the number of people who attended the Tazzu WordPress Camp. Who thought that Joomla! is not as well known as Drupal or WordPress in Vancouver? We proved them all wrong!

Open Source developers aren’t free or cheap either

Joomla! CMS WordpressDrupal CMS

Just heard from a friend that a client looking for a “Joomla Expert” hung up on them after hearing their rates. Apparently some people still think that just because they can go and download a free copy of Joomla, Drupal, or WordPress that means any service provided in that domain should be cheap or free as well.

Reality is that Free in open source mostly refers to freedom to read and change the code to make it suit your project goals.

More updates on the Vancouver Joomla Day

As you might have read the announcement on the rmd Studio website, we are organizing the Vancouver Joomla Day on the June 12th 2008 with the help of other associates in our circle such as Wendy Robinson, Tazzu (Vancouver’s Business & Technology) Community, PeerGlobe Technology, and JenTekk Web Solutions.

We have made some changes to the event’s schedule, because we though the original plan was a little too developers focused and we didn’t want to rule out the non-developer Joomla enthusiasts, Marketers, and Social Media consultants from attending this community driven event.

Have you done any projects in Joomla? then put it on the spotlight

In the new schedule we have considered 6 project spotlight time slots, each 15 minutes long for those who have been involed with a Joomla related project and would like to share some insights with the rest of community members. If you have developed  any projects in Joomla you might be interested to do a small presentation on the Joomla Day. For more information please read this post on the Tazzu blog

More Time to share and cross pollinate ideas

There is a one hour lunch break from 12:00 to 1:00 PM where we get to socialize a bit

From 4:40 to 5:30 there will be more time for us to spend some time sharing ideas and asking questions. This is your opportunity to meet some of the Joomla Core developers and many other people who are involved in this great project in person.

We are looking forward to seeing you there. If you haven’t purchased your tickets, you can do it here:

We have also listed the Vancouver Joomla Day event on the facebook. If you would like to know who else is attending or help us spread the word, Please RSVP here:
