See over here, then follow the links. Obviously no convention is without occasional strong disagreements - whether it's people on panels, or overheard conversations about the merits of award winners, or whatever - but, really, this was a wonderful convention. It was full of warmth and affection, professional support and good will, and above all a strong sense of community.
