If you ever wanted to meet a whole bunch of qooxdoo core developers at once, there's a good chance to do so on May 26-28, 2008: Two conferences will be held in the city of Karlsruhe (Germany), where most of the qooxdoo framework developers work at 1&1. Excitingly, many team members will participate in the event as speakers, covering quite a wide range of topics, including brand new qooxdoo 0.8 features as well as modern web technologies in general.

Both conferences take place at the same time and location. The first one is the webinale, a well-known German web conference. Most of the talks will be given in German, and so will the following (titles translated to English):
