Chris is right. David Axmark (MySQL AB) usually turns up, but he didn't
this year.

The conference has an attendence of 400 people. The audience is fairly
technical -- getting less so each year though :-(.

If I go next year, I think I will give a tutorial focusing on migrating
MySQL applications to PostgreSQL. Many attendees of my talk this year were
looking for information like that -- something I didn't cover :-\.
