PDC 2008: What to Look For

Here is how PDC is going to work in terms of the articles that you'll see. I will try to continue to have things appear at the usual time in the morning although some days you may get things at a later time.

My talk is on Tuesday. Probably on Wednesday, but maybe later depending on when I get the content hosted, you'll see some slides and resources from the talk.

I'll be writing some of the PDC Proceedings articles that accompany many of the videos and slides on the PDC site. Here are the sessions that I'm planning to cover.

TL02 Under the Hood: Advances in the .NET Type System by Misha Shneerson and Andrew Whitechapel

TL10 Deep Dive: Dynamic Languages in Microsoft .NET by Jim Hugunin

TL16 The Future of C# by Anders Hejlsberg

TL56 Project "Velocity": Under the Hood by Anil Nori

BB06 Live Services: Mesh Services Architecture and Concepts by Abolade Gbadegesin

You'll get the original and unedited writeup for each of these sessions.

I'll attend a number of additional sessions, in the range of two to four, during the course of the week. You'll get a similar type of writeup for each.

Every day I'll post an article about one of the sessions. If I go to 10 sessions, you'll get articles for the next 10 days. You get the idea. At the end, I'll do a summary post and hopefully we'll have links to slides and videos ready for all of the sessions by then.

I'm not planning to write about the keynote sessions. Those are primarily about breaking news and I figure that you'll have a variety of sources to hear what happened.
