By all accounts the recent EurOmnis developer
conference was a roaring success, attended by
over 100 Omnis developers and partners, as well
as several representatives from TigerLogic in
Europe and the USA. The conference took place
October 11 to 16 in the Hotel Klein Zwitserland,
near Arnhem, in The Netherlands, which proved
to be an ideal location for the developer conference
in which technical sessions were attended by no
more than 6 attendees at a time, allowing for
a great amount of information sharing and close
collaboration.
This year marked the 10th technical conference
to be held by developers in Europe, most of them
being organised by long-term Omnis developer Fred
Brinkman, who once again put together
a great conference.

This year's conference also marked the 30th
anniversary since Omnis was created, and during
the Wednesday afternoon, many notable figures
in the Omnis world were assembled to help celebrate
this great milestone. Everyone agreed that the
day belonged to Anna
Wright, wife of Paul Wright who founded
the company back in 1979 and who tragically
died in 1990. Anna spoke passionately about
Omnis and how it started in a small village
near the River Blyth on the East coast of England,
and challenged developers and TigerLogic itself
to fully support and nurture Omnis, so it can
enjoy even greater success in the coming years.
