altnet talk in London/July 31st

[Gojko Adzic]

Hi,

I'm organising a talk at Skills Matter about alt.net tools next month
(July 31st) in London. The idea of the talk is to present the current
alt.net landscape and give people information about options they have
for .NET development outside of the MS stamp-of-approval world.

Instead of me doing all the talking, it would be much better if
several people could would talk about their favourite alt.net tool/
library or something that they are passionate about.

We have about 2 hours for the talk, and we could theoretically extend
it a bit, so we could present 4 or 5 tools with 30 mins sessions or
more tools with shorter sessions.

Anyone on this list interested in participating?

For sure. I could do something on NHibernate if you want.

Hi Gojko

I'd be happy to do a cut-down version of my IoC container talk.

ok - any specific IoC container or general IoC?

[Mike Hadlow]

My container of choice is Castle Windsor, but the talk 'why do I need an IoC container' is a pretty high level overview mostly about what IoC is, what an IoC container does and how it helps you. I presented it at last year's DDD:

@Mike - a little off-topic (but can serve as an appetiser) - the link to download the presentation from the provided blog post is broken. could you please reinstate it?

could you focus the talk more on the tool, not the IoC concept? I
think that a tool-oriented talk would be more consistent with the
other stuff.

Btw, we have one more person doing something about NServiceBus. So,
for the time being, we have NHibernate, NServiceBus and Windsor.

I could do a talk on Rasta as it's open source version OpenRasta should be
ready by then, but it's not an alt.net recognized tool (yet?).

Or maybe a session on git seeing as i've been playing with it recently.

ok, i'll count on you doing something and then you choose what :)
maybe rasta is better because that's your tool.

gojko

[Gojko Adzic]

Ok, here is the list so far:

Subversion - Gojko Adzic
NHibernate - Ian Cooper
PowerShell - Zi Makki
OpenRasta - Sebastian Lambla
Castle Windsor - Mike Hadlow
NServiceBus - Chris Roff

The idea is to do six 15-minute talks and break for pizza and beer
sometime in the middle, then go out for more beers after. The list
above does not necessarily imply the order of talks, we can shuffle
them if someone has a better suggestion.

The rough session description is on
http://skillsmatter.com/event/open-source-dot-net/alternative-tools-for-dot-net-development/.
Please review it and let me know if there's anything you would like
to change or add (i've already asked for my name to be removed from
the title since I am not the only one presenting).

Hi Gojko,

Thanks for including me, I'm really looking forward to it. All I have to do now is work out how to condense my one hour IoC container talk down to 15 mintues. It'll be an interesting challenge :)

See you on the 31st July

Inject the dependencies so the cut bits depend on attendance at a
subsequent presentation?

Thank you very much, I'll be here all night...

The evening should be a quick introduction to some alt.net tools, so I
guess that a quick intro on what the tool does and why it is
important, possibly addressing what it is the alternative to and
comparing it with that alternative is the best way to go. We have
about 2 to 2.5 hr total for the session, so there is a buffer of about
30 mins to allow for Q&A or for some of the sessions to run for longer
than expected. If you don't think that you can condense it to 15 mins,
what is a realistic time for it to run?
