At our most excellent meeting on July 16th, we welcomed back Antonio Chagoury who has been away these past few months on business travel. At the beginning of our meeting we showed off our official INETA certificate recognizing CapitalDUG as an INETA member.
Antonio regaled us with an in-depth presntation on the ISearchable interface discussing how it works and ways to use it with generation of RSS feeds from the DotNetNuke framework.
Later, Jonathan Sheely, who works for Affinigent software, gave demonstrations of SQL Compare and SQL Prompt, both from Red Gate Software, our Gold Sponsor. Both were highly impressive tools, and it was remarked that the SQL Compare is an excellent tool for those of us who develop DNN Modules because of the neccessity for installation and differencing scripts in the installation process.
We were joined by Andrew Duthie, Microsoft Developer Evangelist, who put out some information on the good work he is doing to help distribute community news for user groups in the Mid-Atlantic region.
Our ATT Sponsor, and certified SCRUM Master, Quinton Gilbert, can now officially be called "Grandpa", since his daughter, Michelle, recently gave birth to a beautiful baby girl.
We awarded several prizes, several of which went to some of our new attendees. Grand prizes were from Infragistics and JetBrains. |
