<p>BSDCan 2010 was our 7th conference. As has become the custom,
a &os; developer summit was held in the two days before the
conference. Record numbers attended the Dev Summit which carried
over into the conference proper. It was great to see
representatives from so many more companies. I saw many great
ideas take root and the start of cooperation on several
projects.</p>
<p>The talks during the Dev Summit are beginning to attract a wider
audience, and we've been talking about opening this up to the
general audience by creating a fourth track at BSDCan 2011.</p>
<p>As impossible as it sounds, each year has seen an increase in
the quality of talks and the number of proposals submitted.</p>
