Of course and it will not be the same;

For the ccc conference rc3, linus said something in direction of 'lets not do that again'.

At least for me, i go to Fosdem for all the talks of course but also to see people, dring belgien beer, eat, freeze, have wet shoes and enjoy the sun on the second day for 1-2 hours.

I also reason about code to determine the best language due to features, community size, potential workforce etc.
