Next week, the yearly Dutch Joomladays will be held in Nieuwegein - The Netherlands. As always, the organization has done it's best to get a really exciting program together. Besides regulars like Henk van Cann (organizer previous Joomladays), Johan Janssens (Joomla 1.5 architect), and Wilco Jansen (Core team and development coordinator), there are also some people who are new to me though I have worked online with some for years.

As always, there are both Dutch and English sessions. One of the exciting sessions I'm looking forward to is the talk about Joomla 1.6, for which an alpha will be released soon.

It's also a great to meet people, both the people that I work with throughout the year and users of Joomla. It's a great place for me to talk to fellow global moderators, since two of them are Dutch. A great way to start planning the immediate future.

There are still some tickets available, they can be booked at joomladays.nl or joomladays.nl/en/ if you are not speaking any Dutch.
