When I got there - 2 weeks ago to work with Amos, Derick, Fred and Ray on the eZ components - it had the expected amount of snow. A few days later, there was nothing anymore. We had positive celsius values and the weather was really crappy... until Monday. Since then it has been snowing all the time and yesterday we left when it looked like this: - Early bird catches the worm - eZ components workshop I just noticed that we offer an early-bird-discount for all of our trainings. This obviously includes the eZ components workshop I will be giving on March 6th and 7th. If you book until 1 month before the course starts, you still save 10% of the workshop price. So take your heels and join me in March! :)
