Am definitely going to attend, as I’m about to become a WordPress user, having developed & been managing a news-aggregator website over the past year. I can’t WAIT to make the switch to WP, have it up & running, then come to Montclair to learn everything I can!!! Now all I need to know is what are the actual dates & how/where to buy tickets so I know exactly what days & how many nights to book the hotel for. Thanks so much!
