A little more info about the meeting in Switzerland

Post by Mark » Sun Jun 08, 2014 5:51 pm

On Saturday, 28th June 2014, Björnke von Gierke and Mark Schonewille will organise a LiveCode meeting. On this day, we'll welcome you at the Zentrum Karl der Grosse (Charles the Great Centre) in Zurich, Switzerland. We can now provide you with a little more info about the meeting.

Agenda

While the agenda for the meeting hasn't been decided on, we can already mention a few items that are likely to be included:

1) Opening at 13:00h.

2) A discussion about the question why LiveCode "doesn't catch on", or why people "don't get it".

3) A raffle with great prizes, including a SuperCard license, a copy of the book Programming LiveCode for the Real Beginner, a Charts Engine license, an Animation Engine license and more.

4) We will have a goodie bag (or envelope) containing a coupon code for a 30% disount on a LiveCode license and a 50% discount in Installer Maker. We are still looking for more items in the goodie bag; let us know if you want to add something.

5) Closing at 17:00h.

6) Dinner on the premises at 18:00h.

There is plenty of time left in our schedule and we invite you to send in proposals for discussion topics and presentations. If you have been struggling with a question for a long time, you can ask the attendants for an answer; if you have a cool trick, you can show us; if you have a product to announce, you can give a demonstration; etc. Obviously, you can also just attend the meeting.


Registration and participation

Because there is limited space on the premises where we hire a conference room, we would like you to register as soon as possible by sending an e-mail to Björnke at bvg@mac.com .

While entry is free, you'll need to bring sufficient cash for drinks and dinner. We will provide coffee and tea. The hotel will be at your own expense. We can recommend a hotel on request.

Why? It would be a business trip. No holidays.
