About blog, disclaimer
I work for Opera, but the opinions here are my own, not Opera's. Although from time to time we agree. This blog is written with the (fairly easy-going) terms of

Thanks to everyone in Kazakhstan, organisers and helpers and participants. You made what started as a miserable trip into an excellent BarCamp that others will strive to match.
Now I am in Spain for a couple of very formal events and a tour of universities, before a two-week speaking tour of Brazil. Meanwhile, the work piles up...
