It's been a year since we all shifted to doing everything completely online. I'm curious to know - what's been the most memorable part of attending an Atlassian Community Event for you? Online or offline!

I am going to cheat a lot here.  I have four.

  • I went to Kew Gardens for an ACE and met an Adaptavist for the first time (I'd worked with them before, but never physically met one), plus an Atlassian, and then a load of other people in the ecosystem. 
  • I went to an ACE and met Bee.
  • I went to my first Atlassian summit, as a guest, not a partner, and met what felt like 1/3rd of the Atlassian team
  • Several years later, Bee yelled "Road Trip" at me, and, well, @Daniel Eads - you know what happened there.  I would love to do that again.  Susan mentiioned it the other day, so...

I can't say that there is a single ACE that is "most" memorable though.  I have a terrible memory, the ones that stand out for me are the ones that affect my life, not necessarily the "best" for others.

Well I suppose I should say that the most memorable ACE for me was taking over the leadership of the London AUG with Kevin Smith and Jay McCarogher. After that it lead to a lot of great times meeting folks from all over the world and having some amazing times. 

Anyone who has not attended an ACE in person should definitely make the effort when we can meet together again. In the meantime I have been loving the opportunity to join virtual events all round the world.
