Just a reminder to everyone that the "early bird" pricing that is in place on the CakeFest[1] website right now will come to and end at the end of the month. The event is shaping up to be an awesome one, and the CakePHP team and I are really excited to bring the event to Manchester. We're seeing a huge influx of local involvement and attendance, as well as significant attendance coming internationally.
Thanks to everyone that's shown support, and helped by retweeting, and commenting about the event to increase awareness. We couldn't do this without the support of the community!
