The detailed agenda for the Developer Group Meeting on the 20th of October in London has been published. I am speaking in the afternoon on ‘Using Typemock Isolator to enable testing of both well designed code and nasty legacy systems’ Hope to see you there
I have reached my hotel after the days events at Software Craftsmanship 2010 at Bletchley Park and got a chance to write up my thoughts. I had planned to Tweet during the day, but just never got round to it, too busy. So how was the event? I have to say I don’t think I enjoyed it as much as last year’s event. That is not to say this was not a good event, but this years seemed to focus on hands on programming tasks....
We have had an internal timesheeting system written in Access services running without any problems for the past through months. At the end of last week, when people tried to submit their timesheets they started getting a -4002 error saying the macro (that saves the weekly sheet) could not be started. Checking the server event logs, Sharepoint logs and Access services log tables showed nothing. So as all good IT staff do we tried the traditional IISRESET command (on both our Sharepoint web servers) and it all leapt back into life....
The results of the DDD Dublin vote is in, and I am sorry to say I did not make it through the selection process. I must come up with at least some more interesting titles and abstracts (of course I can leave the sessions as dull as ever as you have voted for them by then, just like politicians and general elections really). The schedule looks really good, but after a bit of thought I have decided not to attend the event; I am speaking or attending events both the week before and the week after DDD Dublin so I am going to take the chance to reduce my carbon footprint and have a weekend at home....
DDD9 will be on the 29th Jan 2011 at TVP, for more details and to submit sessions see http://developerdeveloperdeveloper.com/ddd9/
