Code Camp will be next week in Southern Cal at Cal State Fullerton and I'm going to be there to give a couple sessions (not all of these - sessions aren't quite final yet). I'm really looking forward to this event – there's a huge turn out of speakers on a variety of topics. Topics are heavily slanted towards .NET but there are a number of general and 'other' topics like several sessions on Ruby, Python and general Software Development topics (mostly agile stuff).

 

There were apparently some issues during the session picking process. I submitted 5 sessions although I wasn't planning on doing them all, and all are listed. I see several other speakers loaded down with 5 or 6 sessions. I expect that the session list will trim down somewhat to leave speakers with a more reasonable load. Personally I don't want to do more than 2 or 3 to have some time to attend sessions.

 

This event is one hell of a value for a free event and the Code Camps I've attended or spoken at in recent months have all been a blast. Kind of like a low pressure conference that's a bit more interactive and personal than bigger conferences. I suspect turnout in LA will be a bit bigger than up in Portland though

 

If you live in the LA area and have time stop by, learn something new for free and say hi...

 

I'll see 'ya there...
