First (real) post!  Welcome to the official blog of The Apache Software Foundation (ASF).

This week, we are here at the Mövenpick Amsterdam City Centre hotel for ApacheCon Europe 2009.  Today, we've got the Hackathon and BarCampApache going on in addition to a number of training sessions.  Tonight, we have some MeetUps.  Tomorrow, the Hackathon and the trainings continue with yet another round of MeetUps in the evening.  Then on Wednesday, the main conference sessions begin.

We'll be reporting more from ApacheCon in the next few days - so stay tuned.

And, of course, if you're in the Amsterdam area, please stop by and say hello!
