Thank you!

Hello everyone!

I wanted to take a moment to once again thank our presenters, our sponsors and attendees! Each of you played a critical part in the success of Tech Valley Code Camp 2008.

In fact, we consider it successful enough to do again this year -- we're shooting for v2.0 in November. Details to follow. (Yes, the bugs WILL be shaken out of the Code Camp software next time around, or there's a round of beers on me.)

I also wanted to give everyone an opportunity to exchange networking info. For anyone who would like to participate in an exchange of LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, blog, etc. profiles and URLs, please email your profile or site links to: info@techvalleycodecamp.com. I'll post them to the Code Camp site at http://techvalleycodecamp.com/ as they become available.

To give us a headstart on that, you can find me at:

Bugs, bugs, bugs v2

Session signup is HALF working -- if you select one session at a time under "My Schedule," you can successfully schedule up to TWO sessions.

Debugging now! (Chris, if you're reading this, I don't suppose you'd know if Lorin has updated the site software or not? The version on CodePlex is rough.)

Bugs, bugs, bugs!

I know people are seeing error screens. Turns out clearing your cookies tends to fix this problem.

If anyone has problems that ARE NOT resolved by clearing cookies, please drop an email!

Tentative schedule up!

Tentative schedule is now available from the "Event Schedule" link at the top of the page.

"My Schedule" is not working properly, but yes, if you click to sign up for an event, it really does add you. Apologies for the bugs, the code is open source, borrowed from previous Camps.

Linium withdraws sponsorship

Linium inexplicably withdrew their offer of funding for our event this week.
