I think there will be a small but deadly group of XSL developers working
together on some killer web applications.

Subject: Re: [backstage] Hack day in London
I'd love to see some cool stuff hacked with as/apollo/flex/etc.
a sneaking suspicion tells me that we have all the components to step
away from the constrictions of the browser (specifically, dealing with IE) and
instead run platforms which are just that little bit easier....
i was initially thinking a flickr app which used voice activated
commands to browse tags etc... you'd have a big screen which you spoke to, and
from v.a. > an apollo app > flickr api interaction....
shame i can't find good quality voice activation. :)

Sounds like a great event. Can any language/technology
be used? RoR, Java, C#?
Is all the hacking done on the weekend? Or do people do
prep before hand?
When do we find out if we have been accept/invited?
