Microsoft and Open Source, Unhandled Exceptions. Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane

By Nick Hodge | May 28, 2009

Microsoft and Open Source, Unhandled Exceptions.

Microsoft and Open source? Isn’t that like cats and dogs liv­ing together? Dis­cuss and learn what (where and why) Microsoft is embra­cing Open source. See which Microsoft tech­no­logy can pos­it­ively affect your Open source based pro­jects, and how you can con­trib­ute. We would also like to hear your unfiltered feed­back on how we should con­trib­ute, too. Come along, bring your col­leagues, have some light refresh­ments and enjoy a relaxed conversation.

At the recent WebDU con­fer­ence, Jorke and I sat down with two groups of attendees to hear warts-and-all, on the ground stor­ies. Simple ques­tions and deep answers provided an insight that a Power­Point (or Key­note) present­a­tion gives. Listen­ing hurts, hard.

Extend­ing this into open source even­ings seems like a good way to go. No need to shill open source.

Register an pop along. Vent at us in more than 140 char­ac­ters. See you there.
