DemoCamp is an informal event for sharing stuff you're working on and
getting feedback. Time slots are just 10-15mins long, so no elaborate
presentation is needed; slides are even discouraged (demo, don't just
talk). Presenters should just give a brief introduction, demo, and follow
up with some form of discussion. Ask for feedback, talk about problems,
and/or ask questions. The demoed project can be a piece of software, some
quick scripts, a web application, a hardware "hack", or just a toy.

If you're interested in demoing something please email us for a slot.
Otherwise, come see what cool stuff your peers and future colleagues are
working on!

Scheduled presentations include:
# Nikolas Coukouma - Greasemonkey and user scripts in general, bending the
web to your will

# Nick Yeates - Maybe I could bring my mac mini and show off its Hi Def
HTPC (Home Theatre PC) capabilities; (TENTATIVE)

# Mike Bentley - computer games: Destination: Centauri Online is a 2D
isometric turn based strategy game written in Java, best described as
Starcraft meets Advance Wars. Hover Tanx is a 2D side scrolling game
written using Visual Basic of all languages. It's a little bit like the
game Moon Patrol, with the player controlling a hover-capable tank across
a wide vareity of terrain.

# James Robey - Blooms/Zlope: labour of love project that fuses the ZODB
and mod_python into a fascinating glue language with persistence,
security, and an extremely unique approach to making XML a first class
language component. Also demoing using it with OpenLaszlo. The project is
stable and mature, but nearly entirely unshown. This will be the first
public showing.
