Gathering 4
It has become obvious over the past few years that there have been a number of tools and techniques that have “come from nowhere”. Look at where Java was a few years ago – a niche language for web applications – now its everywhere.
Take Ruby, as another example – where was that even 1 year ago – now everyone is talking about “Ruby on Rails” – does anyone really know where the separation is between Ruby and its independant IDE – Rails ?
The 4th Gen Gathering on 19th March 2008 will try and answer the question “What needs to happen to Gen to allow it to have the same high-profile as these frameworks”.
Check out http://gathering.gentalk.biz to get details of how to sign up and how to participate in this discussion and make your voice heard !
Don’t forget to sign up to Second Life and join “The Gen Gathering” group in advance of the event to get your free Gentalk T-shirt to wear to the Gathering, where you’ll also receive your free event-specific T-shirt for your Second Life Persona to wear.
