We are trying to finalize cities and dates for the 2012 edition of Delphi Developer Days, the training event I organize with Cary Jensen.
We (meaning myself, Cary Jensen and Loy Anderson) are trying to finalize cities and dates for the 2012 edition of Delphi Developer Days. This is what seems decided so far:
-
Two stops in the USA, in Washington DC/Baltimore and Chicago, two locations we've been to in the past. Tentative date is now mid-April. We are still soliciting input for a third city, but might add it only if the first two are sold out.
-
Three or four stops in Europe, in two different months. Most likely seems end of March and mid May. The two different European sessions will be before and after the USA stops. Current cities are Frankfurt, Amsterdam, and London. Plus we are really looking for a 4th stop. Top voted locations are Rome and Paris for now. Would you come if we set it up in a these cities or a different one? Or coming to London or Amsterdam is what you prefer?
-
Other regions. We are still evaluating other regions, including a stop in Dubai. But input has been very limited so far. Any other country? Do you like in Japan or Korea or Turkey and would you be interested in Delphi training in English? If there is enough demand we can set up extra stops almost anywhere...
So we are soliciting input at http://www.delphideveloperdays.com, and specifically at the Notify me page at http://www.delphideveloperdays.com/notifyme.html. Or feel free to commentr to this blog post if you don't want to fill the form with your data (even if giving us some information about you adds value to your request). In both cases, try to tell us why you'd pick a given city, not just which one you'd pick!

Hi Marco,
Any plans for São Paulo - Brasil?
It would be nice to have an edition here.
Regards
Roberto

Would this be a good time to lobby for Toronto?

Toronto is a good one (my home town :)), but what
about Edmonton, AB? It's a matter of a few hours
difference from Calgary and of course I would be able
to attend. :)

Some short answers:
- Brazil is certainly interesting. Would giving the
seminar in English be a problem for attendees? What
would be a good price tag? I guess the equivalent of
799 US dollars will be way to expensive...
- The problem with Canada, if I remember right, is
that there are accounting and legal issues for a US
company to resell a seminar there. Is it that
difficult to get to Chicago? Also I heard Montreal had
more attendees than Toronto in the XE2 tour.
- India could be interesting, but which city/area? And
what price? And again it might be difficult for a
foreign company to set up an event there.

Hi Marco,
I'm not sure about problems with a US company selling
seminars in Toronto. Drop me a line and I think I can
point you to some people who can help.
If I can make the time, I could make it to Chicago (or
Montreal), but there is a reasonably big Delphi
following here that might not be able to.

I don't know but maybe Poland would be good? Or
China, eventually :-)

Marco I think Orlando Fla is a good place because it
is near Latin America where Delphi has a lot of fans.
There are lots of fligths so traveling expenses are
low.

Hi,
Try to attend at India. I am one of tiny developer
and difficult to go outside of India.
