The same to you!

I’m not a dev but I’ll be there.

I’ve never been to a TUG conference, but it’s also a DANTE conference, 
and I wouldn’t hesitate to talk about ConTeXt – your example is a good 
one to get people interested, I think.

I’ll probably show how I make our architectural guides for Bonn – I 
suggested to have a guided tour to one of the HICOG settlements (that 
were built for the American forces and their German employees) with the 
group that’s behind the guides (Werkstatt Baukultur Bonn).

Since I’ll be there on company time (I’m now working for my former main 
customer), I’ll probably also help presenting our LaTeX3-based 
documentation workflow.
