Straight after FOSDEM was CfgMgmtCamp. I actually made a bunch of notes about the event, as it was super-fun, but my tablet had to be factory-reset and I lost most of them which hadn’t been synced. But thought I’d write some of my general thoughts anyway! Regardless it was a pretty cool event, and it was cool putting names to faces I’d talked to on the #puppet
and #puppet-dev
freenode channels.
The event started out with 3 keynotes in cronoligical order of config management systems: Ansible, Puppet and Chef.

#DevOps: cultural allergy to things that make you slow. Empowering & trusting each other = moving much faster. #cfgmgmtcamp @adamhjk

After that, it was a breakout into the separate rooms for tools represented. I ended up spending most of my time in the Puppet room.
