"business meeting in Madrid with the W3C" sounds interesting, are you joining a working group or something?

Yeah, I was at the W3C working group on Device Descriptions (DDWG). Check out the transcripts of the Madrid meeting on 12th/13th July :)

Just came home from the concert, and it was f8cking AWESOME.
Great arrangements, well played, and a good selection of tunes ( although i missed Cybernoid, due to heavy traffic )

Tel's session after that was GREAT, nice SID's on a good beat.

Bas Bron was nice....could have mixed better, but still enjoyable.

Didn't get to hear much of Goto80, went home when he started.

All in all, a very good evening ! :D

Yes, he did a great set in Copenhagen last year as well. Couldn't help doing a bit of "dancing" with Wallström and the Kenzoid to the beat! :D

I have to agree with FFrenzy.. (hi matey.. see ya at X)

The Orchestra was amazing... Tel was great..

And the rest I had to mis, due to friends wanting to be home on time..

The rest of Tel's show I'll see at X2006 :)

Ranzbak made a bootleg video.. The quality is not good but it's a nice bootleg..

Definitely an enjoyable evening... :)

You don't get the chance to shake hands with Rob and Jeroen very often. The arrangement for the orchestra was excellent. I'm going to listen to it again next week in Amsterdam. ;)

Heh, that was one of the highlights of the night for me! I'm sure there's some footage of that out there which will come back to haunt us one day! :shock: :oops:

Amsterdam is 180 KM from Venlo, 215 from Heerlen....
But ANY online routeplanner could have said you that !
