Yeah, it's trendy to drink beer in October. And they cancelled the real Oktoberfest, so D is here to pick up the slack!

Grab some brews (or anything to drink, really), and your favorite D topics, and join us October 24-25th. Someone (probably Iain again) will post a link to the stream on Saturday.

Note that the Beerconf for November will coincide with Dconf Online 2020, and will be more "official" than this. I expect some news to come out about that soon.

Hi everyone,

For some reason, I thought it was happening next weekend, sorry for that.  Now I'm in the correct calendar week, I'm happy to announce that beerconf has started, following the same naming convention as every month.

People usually get confused, so I'll say this now, there is a "bot" in the room, its name is "beerconf" this month.  Don't speak to it, you'll be met with stern silence. :-)

I'll be joining in about an hour, so hope to see you all soon over the weekend!

Iain.
