Hi All,

Our first meetup is just around the corner. Or more appropriately next week the 10 May.

We have two talks lined up. We will be meeting at the Microsoft Campus at 7pm. 

FuzzySpoon (Could we have a real name :-) ) is talking about his event based game engine using javascript 

Joshua will be doing a talk on EXTjs.

Here is a map to the place. Directions are Address:

If you can make it could you just reply to this post so we have a general idea of how many people to expect.

Awesome to see you all there drinking beer and chatting javascript. If I've left anything out let me know.

Cheers

Garren

Hi Garren,

I would like to join and I have some (two or three) developer friends who are also interested but haven't joined the Joburg-JS Google group.

Looking forward to it.

Cheers,

My name is Sven.

I am wondering what topics would be more interesting and how long any talk/demo would be? :)

[Garren Smith]

Thanks Sven :-)

I think a nice overview of what you have done would be great. Lets keep the talks to 20 min I think and 10 min or so for questions. Would be interested to know the process of embedding the v8 engine as well. 

Thats just what I think not sure what everyone else thinks.

Planning on being there, if life goes as planned.

[Simon Stewart]

Will definitely be there and will have a dozen or so JSinSA mugs to give away (hope noone minds the marketing hijack?)

Not as long as it includes some of that Green Bean Coffee again :-)

[Craig Paterson]

I may crawl out of my hobbit-hole long enough to make an appearance. I will consult the tea leaves on the day.

I have found other leaves that give better consults than tea.

[jfreislich]

Sorry for not confirming again. I will be doing the presentation on
setting up an ExtJs application framework as proposed. I'll do the
Sencha touch mobile app another time. Does anyone know if there will
be a third demonstration to add to mine & Fuzzy's?

[Garren Smith]

Five roses or Rooibos? I find Rooibos to be far to opinionated! 

[Jacques Bezuidenhout]

How did we get from beer to tea? :P

Unless you mean "met eish ja"

[ProfK]

Terribly sorry, but I will no longer be able to make it. I have some
urgent work to attend to.
