Trip Report: CppCon Just Ended -- Charley

As folks are heading home, a number are writing up trip reports for the companies or colleagues. Here's one from the Qt community:

CppCon Just Ended

by Charley

From the post:

Apologies for cross-post qt-interest and qt-dev, but wanted to be sure both groups saw the announcement for next year (20-25 Sep-2015).

WOW AGAIN for a great conference.  Really heavy-hitters there, with information I don't know is available elsewhere...

This was a "first-year" conference, and it was a huge success (about 600 people, it exceeded their goals).  There is a strong possibility that it will double in size for next year, and they have a venue that can handle that...

Even though it was a "first-year" conference, it is interesting to note that a "culture" is clearly starting to form.  It was incredibly open, and collegiate, and supportive across the different industries and companies -- for newcomers and for experienced people (although it is most definitely a place where experienced people can finally discuss their advanced issues when they have nobody else at their company to help).

These were incredibly smart people merely coming together to talk about problems and solutions and experiences in using and growing C++.  I'm going back again next year (assuming their restraining order against me has expired by then).
