Previous meeting: October 27th 2010

Okay so having started somewhat of a trend of prospective user groups I figure I should write a wiki page about what is planned for the first PLUG on October 27th.

So the format would appear to be pretty straightforward initially...

1) Meet and greet (6:30pm -7:00)

2) Presentations (TBC, see table below)

3) Go to the pub

Name

Presentation

Tom

PAT AND/OR using Hudson to manage your test and productions environments and keep them in sync.

Nigel

TBC

Harris Ward

Adhoc Reporting with CDF

Pedro Alves

Something amazing using javascript

Jon Durrant

Integrating end user data loads into the same dashboard they report through

Others.....

 

I have ideas about future workshops and stuff. If people want certain topics covering(regarding the CE stack) then let me know.

Also hopefully down the road we'll be able to secure some special guest speakers if we get a reasonable turn out.
