Everyone,
Thanks to all of you who attend the first Virtual SDDN. I think we had some
interesting discussions. Some of them we can definitely continue on this
mail list or in the next Virtual SDDN. Unfortunately I didn't record this
meeting (I'll make sure to do it next time), but I'll include a
It was good meeting, Miguel, although I had to leave around 10:45...Didn't
expect it to go that long :) My 2 cents -
1. I would say c. It would be good to alternate between the two.
Alternatively, we could have one presentation and then open the floor for
discussions in the same meeting
Doh I thought I was tonight as for some reason in my head it was 9pm my time..
I'll definitely sync in at the next one! :)

I think Monthly to every six weeks is a good idea and alternate between
physical meet ups and virtual ones... Of course if people are keen we can do
the virtual meets far more often as suggested.
Remember, at the physical meet ups you get to have beer :) It's just not the
same thing smashing
How much is the special discount for ReMIX?
Cheers.

$50 I believe, which makes the ticket $150 before the early bird cut-off (if
it's not already cut-off)... but don't quote me :)

Thanks again for getting this happening, I got lots from it.
I think once a month is pretty good, as long as it doesn't clash with the
Alt.net virtual meeting that happens fortnightly.
I think a presentation on a topic (with code! learn the most from seeing
it). I think the best
Hello
I have a very trivial problem, but all the solutions to it seem to be a bit
of an overkill. Just looking for a simple solution
So here's the problem: Bind a Textblock to more than one field (or a
string and a field)
For example: Textblock Text={Binding FirstName + + LastName} /
hey thanks for putting this event on. i will be sure to have a
microphone handy next time.
i think a combination of presentation and discussion is good. i like
showtell especially. maybe decide (some of) the topics a day or two
ahead via this list rather than during the meeting. frequency?
The only way I know of is to use two text boxes or a converter.

Assuming the binding is one-way, and you 'own' the model to which you
are binding, can't you extend it and create a derived property there?
Lets say you were binding to a Person class
public string Firstname { get; set; }
public string LastName { get; set; }
public string
I'd be either using a) a stack panel with multiple text boxes of b)
(prefereably) a view model which supports a LoggedInAsText property, which
you can do the concats nicely.
A ViewModel is simply a class which is passed in to the DataContext and
provides nice properties for your UI to bind to,
Yeah I was thinking the same thing, creating a combined string to populate the
textblock contents, you could also look at the MVVM there is a ViewModel class
that allows your to bind your content into the datacontext so it doesn't affect
the UI.

Good point, use the View Model to create the combined property from your
underlying domain model.

Thanks for the quick replies guys...
Well, I am using MVVM (Actually, NikhilK's SilverlightFX and modifying his
Amazon Store sample to my needs...), but being a programmer, I am inherently
lazy and sometimes need a simple binding expression instead of creating
converters or properties in the
Good point. That is up in the air. The stakeholders are adamant they
don't want to let the user skip or mute the video.
My feeling is that we should let the user control volume and skip, but
certainly we don't want play / pause buttons and we don't want any sort
of frame around the video as
Yes, I am planning to use a basic media element.
I tried code below, but it basically just showed a blank screen. I
tried a couple of things like AutoPlay = true / false
I haven't had time to look at it again, but was mostly wondering if I
was on the right track.
Cheers.

Thanks for the feedback.
Just summarizing.
Monthly or every 6 weeks sounds good. More often if there's something to
talk about. If there's a lot of interest in the list about something we
could just plan an ad-hoc Virtual Meeting.
I think alternating Discussion with presentation it's a good
