Special areas to chat with speakers during the coffee breaks. No censor, no panic, no time limit.
Discussions with no leaders or speakers. The very secret place where the new ideas are born to define the future.

His special focus is on the challenges of apps interaction (mainly on WCF stack), performance problems, as well as the convenience of developers working on complex projects.
Anatoly was studying to become an information security specialist. He was earning money like a tough C++ developer on Linux. After getting bored of coding, he felt the urge to create and switched to C#. He has been writing in .NET since its first versions.
