I know that the price is already much lower than most conferences, but are you planning on having any student discounts? I'd love to go, and this is actually within driving distance!

Organizer here: we offer 25% discount to students. Just email me a picture of your student ID and I will send you a discount code.

Is the bootcamp geared toward complete beginners (and by beginner, I mean someone with a computer science background, able to program in another non-functional language)?

Love seeing this. Is there a bigger Erlang community now in DC? I went to a meetup in 2011 and it was like 4 people.

luccastera4• 14 years ago

In 2011, we had more than 100 people attend the first edition of the ErlangDC conference.

Since then, we've seen an uptick on the attendance of the monthly meetups which we've been having more regularly: http://www.meetup.com/erlang/. We've been getting between 12 to 20 people attend the meetups.

We are hosting one next week actually in which Jordan Wilberding will be talking about Credit Card processing for mobile apps.

The main goal of the conference is to improve the DC Erlang community. All the money that's left over is used to support the DC meetup group.

I applied on behalf of Darren from 2600hz. Really excited to talk about Erlang (we use it as the logic layer of our open-source Telecom stack).

We're definitely down to fly out and promote one of the coolest languages for performance distributed computing.

That's great! Darren gave a great talk at this year's SF Erlang Factory.
