I think it's a great idea.  Pity I'm over in Perth and won't be there. 

 

Is there still unease over the future?  I was hoping the sentiment had
petered into irrelevance by now (like the idea).  I'm especially
interested in the perception of WPF in some of the major capitals where
the market is a lot stronger generally.  There seems to be a host of WPF
jobs popping up in the US right now, and I thought the future was
clearing again?

Subject: Ideas for Melbourne SDDN - May meeting

 

I am currently locking down the speakers for the meeting in April, but
thought I should start throwing out ideas for the May meeting.

 

My thoughts at the moment are

*       I would love to see a lot of people who have never presented
before, put their hand up to do a 10-15 lightning minute talk.
*       There is still unease in the WPF / Silverlight community about
its future vs. HTML 5, #fixwpf, etc.

 

So what I am proposing for May, is a series of Lightning talks where
everyone can spend 10-15 mins just showing off an application that they
are currently building right now with Silverlight / WinPhone 7 / WPF.

No need to create a ton of slides, no need to prepare a lot of
materials. Just jump up in front of everyone and show off what you are
working on at the moment. What are are you finding easy and loving, and
what are some of the difficulties you are having with your application.

 

I think this would help showcase all the great work we're doing at the
moment that is usually hidden from view, and will give everyone a chance
to talk amongst themselves after the presentations. Discussions on how
to get around their issues / new ideas for their apps can be started.

 

Thoughts?
