Ignite in Zurich was a blast. Lots of good presentations (which I will hopefully be able to share later) and excellent discussions on content management. My favourite quote was from Newsweek's Meshach Jackson. Their editors on the CMS selection process:

If you don't select CQ we're all quitting.

I also enjoyed what David Nuescheler had to say about separation of content and layout. The standard CMS architecture thinking goes like this
a) we need to separate content and layout
b) therefore, the user interface for the authors cannot look anything like the rendered pages and we will make it look like a database entry mask

David demonstrated that a) simply does not lead to b). Or in his own words:

Separating content and layout does not mean you have to confuse the authors

To get a taste of the event: The conference hashtag was #dayignite and here are some Ignite pictures on Flickr:

So, in case you missed Ignite Zurich there is still Ignite Chicago coming up...
