Just talked to Eelco and he told me that car bombs are for sissies (he’s a whiskey drinker). So I guess the Wicket honour has been kept up. As he came back at around 4am, will he be attending my Wicket presentation at 11?
Next time when I don’t have a presentation the next day, I’ll uphold my end of the deal also and join the sissies.
Here’s a new update on the publicity Wicket is getting:
I chickened out at the blogger meetup: I didn’t want to end up like Bileblog Hani just before my session on JavaOne, so I left when they started issuing car bombs. Sorry Matt!
All in all it was very interesting to meet the bloggers out there in person and it was pretty neat to meet Matt Raible, even though he can be quite annoying ;-). My esteemed collegue Eelco Hillenius is heading out right now to meet them and hold up the Wicket honour (I hope Matt forgot to bring his camera).
