Hi Sandro.
Thanks for this calendar!
Two quick notes:
1) on March 18-20, there is PHPCon in Rome, Italy
http://www.phpcon.it/konferenzen/phpconitalia/
2) the entry for the MySQL users conference says “5th edition”. Since the first one was in 2003 and we haven’t skipped any year, this is the seventh one!
Cheers
Giuseppe
