I have a personal view on conferences<p>The higher level the issue debated, the less value there is in a conference (higher level - not necessarily 'closer to the metal')<p>As such<p>Python conference - sign me up!
Django or Pylons conference - ok
Pinax conference - don't waste my money<p>Because it gets more specific, less flexible every time.<p>A conference on CSS/HTML5? Looks cool. A conference on LESS? C'mon<p>Especially for $300 dollars
