Hi there
everyone,
This weekend (I
know it is late notice) we will be having a bug-find-a-thon. Delphi 8 is very
nearly ready, but there are a few (around 18 actually) scenarios that the RAD
business unit are really keen to make sure people test. So what do I want from
you? If you plan to be in Auckland on Saturday the 12th (that is this
Saturday) then I would really like you to come along, bring your PC (we have a
few monitors but bringing a monitor would also be a good idea) and help us
test Delphi 8!!!
So the
details:
Where: Level 4,
187 Queen St, Auckland. You may need to ring me or text me to come down and
get you - I will try and ensure that a few people have card access to the
building. My cellphone is 021467747.
When: Saturday
12th - 10am - 4pm - it may go later if we are on a roll
What do you need:
A PC - having the .NET 1.1 framework already installed and one of the
supported databases is good (MS SQL Server, DB2, InterBase, etc) If you want
to do pair programming that is cool as well, bring a friend and sit
together.
What will be
provided: Food, juice, water and soft drinks. We'll try and cater for everyone
(its coming out of my pocket though, so don't expect anything too
expensive!)
What else: You
will need to sign an non-disclosure form when you come through the door (if
you haven't already). If you have any Delphi applications that you want to try
and port over, any VCL or such things (remember, no WM_ or assembly code
allowed) bring them along as well. The RAD Asia/Pacific rep has said he will
try and come up with something special for the testers.
I need at
least FIVE people, I would LOVE 25. Please RSVP as soon as you
can - AND PASS IT ALONG TO YOUR
FRIENDS!
