Liferay for your ears: Episode 9 of Radio Liferay is another premier: This marks the first recording with more than one interviewee, as well as the first non-Liferay Employees. I used the opportunity during the european symposium to get together with Corné Aussems, Maarten van Heiningen, Milen Dyankov and Tomáš Polešovský, four Community Contributors.
Part of my original intent was to speak about their contributions and learn what Liferay can do better with regards to accepting contributions. Turns out that this was a handpicked crowd of notorious contributors that praised more than they criticized - well, so be it, it's good to hear this.
Among other topics, we spoke about
I hope that a lot of the enthusiasm that I've seen in this round as well as in any symposium I've been to can be transferred through the recording.
It was a great opportunity to get together with these guys, but sadly the episode is shorter than it could have been - we recorded this towards the end of the symposium, just before the community excellence awards were handed out - and as some of the participators were receiving them, I couldn't keep them busy for longer.
No children were harmed during the recording of this podcast - at least not by us: There were a few playing outside, running around and screaming - and the hotel room was not too soundproof, so this got onto the recording.
