Next Philly Code Camp will be in May and will be back at DeVry University in Ft. Washington, PA. It was a really great event. Almost 400 people attended, and the guys did a very respectable job of putting this thing together. I didn’t hear any negative comments from other attendees around me. The only minor issue I saw was that too many people wanted to see Kevin Goff and Mitch Ruebush speak. It was standing room only in those talks. Thanks to Bill Wolff and everyone at Philly.NET!
