CakeFest 2010: Thats a wrap

by predominant
CakeFest 2010 has come to a close. After 4 days of jam-packed talks, workshops, lightning talks and social outings, we're sad to see it finish.

I'd like to thank the community for their ongoing and ever increasing support. Both for the community and for the CakeFest conference itself. Without the passionate community around CakePHP, we couldn't achieve events like CakeFest 2010.

This year saw a huge interest from sponsors in CakeFest 2010. From large to small businesses, and even in a time of financial hardship worldwide, businesses are seeing the benefits in supporting events like CakeFest 2010 and in supporting open source overall. The generous contributions from all our sponsors ensured the success of this years event, and we'd like to thank each of them for their support this year:


We've had some outstanding responses from everyone that has attended. The adaptive nature of the workshops was well received, as we adjusted day 2 to meet the specific needs of the community.

We have a huge range of photos from the event here: http://s972.photobucket.com/home/CakePHP/allalbums
The gorgeous cake that we had custom made on Sunday was from Tipsy Cake (http://tipsycakechicago.com).
