Hello!
I'm sending this message to the list to announce this year's iteration
of ADHOC, the Apple-focused developer's conference. I'm pretty certain
there are Macintosh developers hidden in most Macintosh user groups,
and we're looking for developers who are experts at everything from
kernel hacking & driver development to novices just figuring out the
basics of Cocoa.
ADHOC (a.k.a. MacHack) has been going for 20 years now, and this year
it will be happening from July 27th through July 31st out in Dearborn,
Michigan (on a pleasant boundry of Detroit). While it's a great
companion to WWDC (we usually schedule a month or two after Apple's
conference), it's also a perfect standalone conference to attend as
you'll actually get to listen to and interact with other engineers who
are actually using the latest & greatest cutting edge technology and
techniques.
A typical day goes like this: It all starts at midnight with an
awesome keynote speaker, or you could be collaborating (it's a Hands-On
conference, after all!) with a peer on some sick/twisted/great project
to show off at the showcase. During the daylight hours there are
sessions that focus on things like open source software, how to make
use of the latest technologies that will be delivered with TIger,
debugging and optimization techniques. You name it, we may have a
session on it.
And since this is a conference by developers, for developers, we need
developer interaction. If you're working on something you'd like to
share with your fellow engineers, or if you have a topic that you think
needs to be explored more and you can talk about it, present a session!
Here's a web page that talks about how to get involved:
<http://www.adhocconference.com/sessions>.
We also have a contest for best technical papers, and folks who write
and present a paper (to be judged by their peers) get to attend for
free! (more info and past papers can be found at
<http://www.adhocconference.com/Papers>.
The early bird deadline for registration is April 15th and there is a
limited amount of very discounted spots for students.
Check out the conference website at <http://www.adhocconference.com>
and please share this with your user group membership. We can only
continue to be a success only with your help!
Thanks so much,
Michael Dautermann
Publicity Chair
p.s. I hope this announcement will be welcome (I tried to contact the
moderator at augd-admin/augd-owner to get permission, but nobody
responded). Does anyone know what would it take to get the conference
listed on Chuck Joiner's news messages? He didn't respond to my
queries, either. Any other ideas, please definitely respond to me
directly. All input is appreciated. Thanks again!
