nosql:eu conference (April 20-22) looks very interesting

I'm really looking forward to some of the slides and posts from the upcoming nosql conference in London.

The agenda is a drool-fest for any scalable KVP/metadata geek. I like how most of the talks are centered on real-world use of various technologies (Cassandra, CouchDB, Dynamo, HBase, MongoDB, Neo4j, Riak, etc.).
