Lorna: your observation is right, the anxiety only disappears once the talk is done, but, the more you do it, the shorter the period of anxiety before the talk (now I only start to worry during breakfast on the day itself :)).

Daniel, to answer your Ibuildings questions, we use our own WDE CMS which is based on the ATK framework. The company is about 60 people, and to answer your question about how many run it: the MT is about 5 people, one of which is me (so if you have any questions, drop me a mail at ivo at ibuildings dot com).

I also like the phplondon meetings very much, even though I’ve been to only 2 so far. But everytime I happen to be in london and there is a meeting, I’ll be there.
