I know we're not supposed to cross post, but didn't want anyone in Brisbane to miss Barry's post just now to fugli. Also wanted to point out that it's possible to bring your own laptop or double-up on PCs if demand slightly exceeds spaces.
Robin Hilliard will be visiting Brisbane and running a Flash Communication Server Workshop (see agenda below) on Wednesday March 19th. The cost for the workshop will be $50.00 to cover room and PC costs. Any extra funds will be donated to the local Macromedia user groups who are responsible for making this workshop possible. There are currently 8 seats available and this is strictly a first come first served opportunity. You MUST REPLY TO [EMAIL PROTECTED] NOT this list. AGENDA The purpose of the workshop is to build FCS development skills for programmers with some basic Flash scripting experience. We don't usually offer training like this for our products but Macromedia haven't released a FCS training course yet, so this is gap-filling till the training arrives. 09:30 - 09:35 Kickoff, introductions (this gives time for flight stuff-ups) 09:35 - 11:30 Robin waves hands about FCS, walk through components, then using actionscript API to build a web call centre with caller queues, pools of call centre operators, live video and chat. Talk about current projects and ideas. 11:30 - 12:30 LUNCH and informal discussion 12:30 - 01:00 Install FCS trial server on machines 01:00 - 01:30 Class programming exercise - connect to server, shared object, call client function from server 01:30 - 04:00 Project time - individuals or teams try out an idea with assistance from Robin and class 04:00 - 04:30 Project review, wrap-up ROBIN's BIO: Robin Hilliard is a Senior Technical Sales Engineer at Macromedia Australia/New Zealand, having originally joining Allaire as the technical support engineer for the Asia/Pacific region.
