Entwicklercamp 2010 – Day 3

As usual, the conference started at 8:30 with SpeedAgendaing and a short briefing.

I had to go and setup my environment for my presentation about “C/C++ API for Beginners” before all the speakers had shown their slides to give the audience an impression, what the session is about.

My session went well and I finished talking one minute before time. I got good response from the audience. I must admit that I totally forgot to do the demoes on the Linux client to show that the code would not only work on Windooze. Sorry for that …

After my session I attended Tim Pistor‘s presentation about Webservices. It was Tim’s first appearence as a speaker. He was a bit nervous and went thru the slides and demo code like a whirlwind.

Do you know that you even can brew coffee with Notes??  Tim and his “assistant” Werner Motzet had pimped a “Senseo” to show how you can get a cup of coffee or two using Lotus Notes and webservices. Great job, guys.

After lunch, Niklas Heidloff was on stage for the CGS. He demonstrated 20 projects, widgets and gadgets from OpenNTF in 60 minutes. Did you already watch the video he has taken during the conference asking for a statement about OpenNTF?

It was a great conference and crowded like never before. The team around Rudi again did a professional job running the conference. And so did the hotel staff.

Julian Buss wrapped up his impressions here ( in german ).


Entwicklercamp 2010 – Day 2

The day started at 8:30 with Rudi’s briefing for the day, followed by the daily speed agendaing. Some speakers had not provided their slides as requested and submitted them via mail during the speed agendaing, which made it a bit confusing for the audience.

With a delay of about 10 minutes the first session started at 9:10 am. Bernd Hort presented “Dojo and Notes” . Easy examples but great effects with only a few lines of code.

After lunch, Niklas Heidloff presented “OpenNTF projects and Dojo”. After a short introduction to OpenNTF he showed how Steve Castledine and Niklas modified the old discussin template where they used all possible techniques from Notes and Domino 8.5.x to improve the user expierience. The room was crowded and Niklas had some problems to put all the exiting stuff into 90 minutes. .

At the moment I’m attending Julian Buss talking about X-Pages in the client.Room is also crowded and it seems to get interesting. Have to stop now to concentrate on Julians’s presentation.


Entwicklercamp 2010 – Day 1

Day 1 of Entwicklercamp 2010 is over. 212 attendees from Germany, Austria, Liechtenstein, Swiss.

Prominent speakers from the US ( Andrew Pollack, Rocky Oliver … ) .

Maureen Leeland opened the conference with a keynote on Lotus Notes Designer 8.5.1 and beyond.

After lunch I attended Bob Balaban’s session on using COM from C++, VB.net and C#. Good tipp on how to get the h files from .tlb, Bob.

Matthias Bierl did a great session on how to create server addin tasks with JAVA.  In the evening there was a razzle and the usual “Questions and answers” hour. I was surprised to hear a lot of questions regarding WebServices. Had expected more on XPages.

5 parallel tracks ( including a hands-on session ) Great content, great speakers. The hotel staff is doing a great job, too.  Tomorrow we will have a full day with 4 sessions in 5 tracks.
