Hi Simon,
I've been to two WWDC (2000 and 2002) back in the days when WO was a
significant part of the proceedings. I made the decision to just
attend
WOWODC in 2007 and 2008. Now that the WO conference is two days, I
think it
is especially worth it, but I am not flying from the UK and going
through
jet-lag and all that. I don't regret my decision to just attend the
WO
weekend and return home and I imagine I'll do the same again this
year. WWDC
is great the first time, but I found it pretty repetitive the
second time.
As Chuck says, though, as an opportunity to hang out with other WO
people
full time for a week, it is second to none. Depends how much of
that you
think you'll be able to stand ;-)
I hear this year there's going to be a after hours session on goat
herding
and husbandry. That might be worth staying for.
Did we get all those speakers lined up? I'm not willing to travel 25
miles for the highlight event just to hear crickets chirp and sheep
"ba"s.
I thought getting the speaker all lined up was the *point* of the
session ;-)

We're looking at coming over for WOWODC West this year. We're
debating
whether to just come for WOWODC, or whether to stick around for WWDC
as well (never been to either before)
Just wondering what the general opinion is on the value of WWDC for
WebObjects people ? Given that there is usually only a couple of
sessions, the ticket price feels a bit heavy!
Cheers, Simon

Hello everyone,
Before people start asking for it, yes we plan to have WOWODC
again this
year. In fact, we are planning TWO WOWODC this year!
First one, WOWODC West will be for advanced topics
- Maven
- Integration with Cocoa
- Advanced EOF
- Direct2Web
- Other topics (we still need additionnal presenters!)
Like WOWODC 2007 and 2008, WOWODC West will be held the week-end
before
WWDC, so it will be June 6th/7th. We don't know where it will be,
current
choices are the Whitcomb, Parc 55 or Palace hotels. We are trying
to get
a
block of sleeping rooms, so wait before make reservations for
your room,
we
might get a good deal.
WOWODC East will be held in downtown Montreal on August 29th/
30th. This
one
will be for novice developers. Topics should be
- Creating reusable components and understanding bindings
- EOEditingContext best practices
- Architecting a project for success
- Using Project Wonder so you don't pull your hair out
- Prototypes, Migrations and EOGeneration
More details next week.
