This Month we have Andrew Nacin talking about WordPress 3.0

Talk Description:
It took less than six weeks after its release in June for WordPress 3.0 to reach 10 million downloads. What makes this platform so popular for users and developers alike? This talk will focus on how to leverage what 3.0 brought to the table -- powerful CMS capabilities in one hand, and blog networks in the other -- and a look at what's next for the increasingly powerful platform.

About the Speaker:
Andrew Nacin is an independent WordPress consultant in Washington, D.C., and since Feburary, a WordPress core developer and committer. He likes fast development cycles, prefers decisions over options, and blogs at http://andrewnacin.com
