The Song of DCamp

(to the tune of On Top of Old Smokey)

Let's all come to DCamp
And join in this song
And shape an unconference
Where we all will belong.

We'll talk and we'll whiteboard.
We'll share and we'll think.
We'll discuss and debate.
We'll eat and we'll drink.

User experience,
Develop, design.
Teams and technology.
People align.

We'll drill in and we'll hang out.
We'll learn and we'll teach.
We'll review and examine
And listen and preach.

Problems, solutions.
New friends and old.
Some ideas that excite us.
And some leave us cold.

When DCamp is over,
We'll turn out the lamp.
We'll roll our bedrolls
And DCampers decamp.

So come all ye to DCamp
And join in this song
And make an unconference
That we'll value so long.

Rashmi-

It's a traditional American folk song that we used to learn in grade
school. See http://www.ibiblio.org/jimmy/folkden-wp/?p=7030.

Is that good or bad scary?

I expect us to sing without a hint of irony! {(;-{D
