  A Silverlight Introduction to newbies/designers + Developer Talk TBA

  0km away in Vancouver

  Okay this is a combined talk for designers/developers depending on the ratio that RSVP's. The designer talk will be aimed at newcomers / existing Flash users and the developer talk I've still yet to determine depending on time. However based on RSVP's I can easily change this to a full developer focus if we end up getting the same faces again :) Please RSVP if you can make the date and a time. There is still the possibility of getting a Microsoft speaker.
