DDD South West Session Voting Is Open

Voting for your favourite DDD South West sessions is now open (go here). Voting for your favourites helps us to allocate the largest rooms to the sessions with the highest demand and therefore we can avoid over subscribed sessions. Here's a reminder of the sessions:-

  • Everything you Wanted to Know About Refactoring but Were Afraid to Ask (Gary Short)
  • Creating extendable applications using MEF (Ben Hall)
  • Oslo and the future Microsoft Modelling platform (Robert Hogg)
  • Embracing a new world - dynamic languages and .Net (Ben Hall)
  • Introduction to Windows Azure (Chris Hay)
  • Real-world MVC architecture (Steve Sanderson)
  • What is Scrum ? (Richard Fennell)
  • A Quantum of Computing (Dave McMahon)
  • Silverlight 3 (Richard Costall)
  • Express Yourself (Marc Gravell)
  • Get Going With jQuery (George Adamson)
  • Less Means More With WCF (Jimmy Skowronski)
  • Introduction to Video Game Development with XNA (Kris Athi)
  • What's New In C# 4 ? (Guy Smith-Ferrier)

Don't forget there's a full Alternative Track of great sessions but as these are all in the same room there is no opportunity to vote for these sessions.

(Note that the voting is just to give us an idea of how popular the sessions are - you aren't committed to anything by choosing one session over another). Voting closes on Thursday 25th April 2009.

DDD Scotland Registration Is Open!

'Tis the free conference season and DDD Scotland has opened its registration so if you live anywhere near Scotland (or you don't mind travelling for a free event) get over to http://www.developerdayscotland.com and get registering. DDD Scotland is being held on Saturday 2nd May 2009 and I will be presenting:-

  • What's New In C# 4 ?
    At PDC 2008 Microsoft unveiled C# 4 and all of the new features within. So now we start the roller-coaster of catch up all over again as we desperately struggle to keep up with what?s new and why we should be interested in the latest flashy feature. In this session we will look at dynamically typed objects, optional and named parameters, type embedding, type equivalence, loose type coupling and more. In addition if we have time we will look at the "compiler as a service" feature to be released after C# 4.
