Talk comments

Hilarious as always. Even as a SilverStripe employee there was a lot I didn't know about our approach to monetisation.

Good talk, though was hoping for a little more technical/implementation detail.

Great workshop. Was worried it would only skim the surface, but we really got deep into some edge cases which made it a valuable learning experience.

I thoroughly enjoyed, and was inspired by the way this talk drew comparisons as a way of communicating excellent advice to everyone in the room. In addition to learning more about another culture, I also felt I was guided through a road map that could boost success factors for the individual developer, as well as society in general.

Phil's presentation at PHP NZ was informative and entertaining. This talk provided great information on how to develop software components that can be easily reused by others in the community, both from the technical perspectives such as ease of integration, and the more analogue issues such as team working and succession planning.

It's always good to see a licensing and monetisation talk at developer conferences, as there is still some confusion in this area. The presentation was informative and entertaining.

If there is one improvement I could suggest, it would be to add some more case studies of other business models, even just cursorily.

This talk was one of my highlights of the conference. While it didn't cover PHP, it provided an insight in to an alternative technology that solves a problem that PHP cannot (easily) address.

This talk, to me, was about giving permission to others to dare, to build something, and to succeed. While I've seen Monty give this talk before, it was still inspiring to be reminded of the process of creating MySQL.

I would love to see this talk updated to include stats and performance comparisons for more recent versions of the various RDBMS options.

I have a strong interest in the law, and found Drew's talk insightful and informative. I think there was a really good balance between recommendations of technical implementation, in order to mitigate some issues do to with data sovereignty.

I'm afraid I have no constructive criticism to offer; I really enjoyed this talk.

A very interesting approach to OOP that makes sense more than the existing design patterns. The talk was easy to follow and informative.
