Code Camp Oz 2007

Here we are on day two of Code Camp Oz for 2007. Day one, I must admit, was a bit slow for me. There were presentations on TFS and CRM, neither of which we use, and one from Dave Glover on Windows Mobile 6, which (although it looks great) I can't see us using in the foreseeable future.

AWDNUG March

For the first time, I believe, Crucible has beaten me to the punch in recapping this month's meeting of the Albury/Wodonga .NET User Group! Last night we had Anton and Tristan presenting; Anton covering a module for Dot Net Nuke called Enterprise Forms , and Tristan talking about the LAMP development...
