FlexCamp OC – Cocomo Overview

February 5, 2009

So FlexCamp OC is a wrap.  It was great to see everyone out there, even with the odd security at Boeing (sorry Suraj – REJECTED)…  All in all it was a lot of fun, unfortunately I did miss the middle sessions as I had to run back to my daughters Science Fair in Irvine (Gabi won top honors in her category!).

So as promised, here are the recommended links from my Cocomo presentation:

Cocomo page on Adobe labs: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/cocomo/

Cocomo Developer Portal: https://cocomo.acrobat.com/

Cocomo Dev Blogs: http://blogs.adobe.com/collabmethods/

In addition here is my PowerPoint file (Cocomo Overview), although without the discussion from the conference not really sure how useful it is.  Jeremy is promising we will have the videos from the conference online “soon”… Will update this post with a link when available.

All the demos presented at the session were straight out of the CocomoSDK, so go sign up now and start collaborating!


E4X is Good4U – MAX Session

November 17, 2008

Just wrapped my session at Adobe MAX on E4X.  I think the session went well, although there were not as many questions during the session compared to the previous times I’ve given this topic.  Don’t know if that means I’m getting better at covering the topic or losing the audience…

I did get several good questions at the very end of the session (post closing – so unfortunately it did not go on the recording).

The two followups I have from the session are on XSLT and data validation (XSD/DTD).  Stay tuned for updates on those.

Presentation slides (warning, it is a big file -700k- because of the Adobe images):

And finally the CSV2XML converter I used to create the Sessions XML file.
