Sorry about the later than normal notice, the month just zoomed by...

When: Wednesday 27th July @ 5:30pm 
Where: NZX, Level 2, NZX Centre, 11 Cable Street
StreetView: http://goo.gl/KOHFA

Presentations:

First up Jeremy Olliver is walking us through the new asset pipeline

Then Breccan McLeod-Lundy will be giving us the inside scope on the return of Rails Engines.


Drinks:
NZX is right next to St John, so we can wander there afterwards for drinks


Access:

The meeting time has been changed to 5:30pm as their outside doors auto-lock at 6pm. Take the lift to the 2nd floor and we'll initially gather in the meeting rooms there in the corridor with the lifts.

If you find the doors are locked when you get there then you'll need to text me on 021 677080 to be let in if someone isn't waiting there - no buzzer. We're still feeling out how to do this - so please take note of my cell phone number and ring/txt me if you get lost/stuck

Fingerprinting is great. Works around all sorts of problems like git and mtime, and cache problems

On a side note: I wonder why slideshare is used so often (flash is a problem for me), and HTML5 compliant sites like scribd are not used.

Cheers

Ah, I'll keep that site in mind for next time. I did a lazyweb search for a slide hosting site, and found some really-really bad ones.

Yeah, it's really neat to have fingerprinting built in pretty seamlessly.

+1.  good to have it back.

I also really like having the source assets inaccessable by default under the /app section rather than under /public
