DDD8 & DDDScotland

So I didn’t get any sessions into DDD8, which isn’t surprising considering the number of excellent sessions that have been proposed this year.  But it does mean that I get to go to all the sessions I want to and not have to worry about speaking :)

But I’m not out of the running yet, as I have submitted the same sessions to DDD Scotland, so there is still every chance one of my sessions will get voted in.  The voting for DDD Scotland opened today, so go vote for my sessions now! ;)

The voting link is http://www.developerdeveloperdeveloper.com/scotland2010/Users/VoteForSessions.aspx.

DDD8 Voting open!

I’ve put in 3 sessions this time:

Introduction to Windows Workflow Foundation 4.0

Introduction to PRISM

PRISM and MEF, Can they be friends

So if you’re interested in seeing any of these, vote for me! ;)  I’ve also submitted the same sessions for DDD Scotland in May.

DDD South West registration opens!

The Registration for DDD South West has now opened! Go register there immediatley!

DDD South West is a free one day technical event on Saturday 23rd May 2009 at Queens College, Taunton with lots of top speakers doing sessions on damn interesting stuff.

DDD SouthWest sessions

I've just submitted 2 sessions for DDD South West, one on WF 4.0 which will be a variant on what I'm presenting at Guy Smith Ferriers Dot Net Dev Net group next Tuesday. Here's the blurb:

A lap around WF 4.0

WF 4.0 was announced at PDC 08, and includes some very sexy new features. We'll take a spin through some of the new features including custom activity creation and WCF intergration to see how WF has evolved.

The second is on PRISM which will be completely new and shiny for DDD South West. Here's the blurb:

Come see my PRISM-tation

PRISM is the latest incarnation of the Composite Application Guidance from the MS Patterns and Practices team. The guidance allows you to build extensible application quickly and easily in either WPF or Silverlight. In this session I'll show you how easy it is to build a WPF application and then extend it with PRISM.

Hopefully one of them will get accepted :)

: UPDATE :

My wife has very kindly pointed out that this is actually our wedding anniversary and her 30th B'day weekend. OOPS! So I won't be going, thank god I didn't forget otherwise that would be really stereotypical and embarrassing! :P
