[jQuery] jQuery Camp 2008 to be held at The Ajax Experience on Sept. 28th.
I will be announcing this once a week until jQuery camp arrives.
The jQuery Team is pleased to announce the second annual jQuery Camp!
jQuery Camp 2008 will be held on Sunday, Sept. 28, the day before The
Ajax Experience, in Boston, MA (location TBA).
Last year, over 100 jQuery developers gathered for a full day of jQuery
sessions, which included talks from such big names as jQuery creator
John Resig and other core team members, as well as talks from expert
users exploring new and exciting jQuery projects. It brought together
the largest group of jQuery Core Team members ever assembled, and gave
users the opportunity to pick their brains and pitch new ideas.
The event was a *clear* success, and this year's camp promises to be
even better.
jQuery Camp 2008 will offer two tracks, providing both introductory and
advanced sessions, covering a variety of topics. Ajax development, Ruby
integration, mashups, security and the recently released jQuery UI
component and effects library are just some of the topics already lined up.
jQuery Camp 2008 will charge a nominal fee of $50 per person, which will
include lunch. Attendees need NOT be registered for The Ajax Experience
to attend. Registration will open in July; keep an eye on jQuery.com for
more details!
For those attending The Ajax Experience, show organizers have recently
announced a half-day time slot for additional jQuery sessions, on
September 29th at the conference center. The agenda is still up in the
air, but we're thinking of offering a "Dream Team Code Review" session,
where users can have code reviewed by members of the jQuery team. We're
interested in your feedback; would you attend this session?
jQuery Camp 2008 is a truly fantastic opportunity to learn from the
jQuery team and socialize with top jQuery developers; we're looking
forward to meeting everyone!
See you all in September,
Rey
jQuery Project Team
