I am friends with some of the folks putting this together. Now that that's out of the way...<p>I am excited about the conference because I think the human factor is often missing from software development, and one of the hardest skill-sets to learn.<p>In an era where frameworks and libraries are ubiquitous, understanding and developing the right products and experiences is going to be increasingly important. A conference that focuses on these "timeless" skills is much more attractive to me personally than any one that is focused on a particular technology.<p>Doesn't that make you feel all warm and fuzzy?
