You can now register for Philly .NET Code Camp 2008.3 which will be held Saturday, October 11, 2008. Get all the details and register here.
I will be there, presenting a beginner session on TDD as part of the ALT.NET track. It looks like I’ve got some solid competition in my time slot, including the likes of Rachel Appel, Steve Andrews and Travis Laborde. We’ll see if the rookie can fill the seats with eager developers while seasoned vets like that are vying for them. I will need to come up with some great prizes or something. See you there!
