More than a conference?
<br>The Erlang Factory 2009 in London is not only the greatest Erlang
conference but also the opportunity to attend  3-day Express courses in
Erlang and Erlang-related technologies (OTP, CouchDB and Quick Check).
The Erlang Factory will start with the Erlang University (June 22nd -
June 24th), where you can attend  focused training in Erlang at less
than half the price of a normal 5-day course!  There are still places
left on the Erlang University Courses but these are limited so visit
our website and don't miss out.
