Would be very interested.

Was talking to Gary B (who runs the list) – he also has been thinking of 
setting up a library where people can contribute code for benefit of others, 
and pick up others tricks.....I for instance do all my printing with Rave by 
displaying the stuff on the screen in labels/memos/grids etc and then have a 
generic print button that prints the form.    Works so well I have never 
written any special printed reports...would be happy to contribute such an idea 
for example.

I think that its a good idea. Esp. If its in diff locations. Then everyone gets 
a chance to be involved esp. Those of us who could get away with doing it 
locally rather than asking to get funding to go out of town which would never 
happen.

Subject: [DUG] Barcamp possibly?

 

I was thinking before this roadshow that a sort of Delphi barcamp might be a 
better bet - I tried organising a Delphi user group a few years back but it 
never worked mores the pity. It doesn't work for most tech groups I find as 
people don't get much value out of it (esp. if its an hour long) and evenings 
are hard for people. 

 

I'm wondering if a full Saturday with multiple rooms and people coming along 
and talking about stuff they are doing, solutions they've found, all that kind 
of stuff would work better? It seems to work in most of the other communities I 
am involved in, would people be interested in that? There are some very clever 
people on this list and I know a few of you are really very good at sharing as 
well as good for networking. 

 

If it worked, we could schedule it every 6-8 months or so (bounce between 
Auckland & Christchurch). We could also make it start later (say 10 or 10:30am) 
to allow people from other cities to come in for the day.

 

Just a thought

 

Richard
