WWDC Tuesday & Wednesday Morning
Wed, 2005-06-08 18:45 — jrearick
Well, Tuesday became a lot less stressful. A lot of people have left and the Internet at the center has become a bit more usable. I am enjoying all the free food. I spent most of the day with Enterprise IT stuff. I attended sessions on OS X Server, Enterprise Lab, and Active Directory Integration. I ate lunch with a couple people who do consulting work form Canada, then saw a presentation by Tim O'Reilly, CEO O'Reilly books. After the conference, dad came by to pick me up to do a little bit of sight seeing and take me to dinner. I ended up drinking a $8 glass of wine at a fancy place in Sausalito overlooking the bay. I will have some pictures eventually when I have time to download them. I may even stitch together some panoramic pictures. I have to say, the bay and the bridge is a lot bigger than I was expecting from the pictures I have seen.
Today I spent the morning learning about dash board widgets. Hearing some comments people had about them and what not. People have some very interesting ideas about where they would like to see dashboard go, and the dashboard team seems to be very open to suggestion. One thing that has been a recurring theme here is that the developers are always looking for feedback. If there is something you would like to see or perhaps you encounter a small bug, please don't hesitate to submit a but at bugreport.apple.com (ADC Membership required).
Over the lunch hour I hung out with a few people from Xerox talking about how cool their new phaser printers are and they asked me how we use their printers and our general feeling about their products. Pretty cool people. The lunch session I attended was about PHP given by the creator of PHP Rasmus Lerdorf. Mostly a forum about the past and future of PHP, nothing really technical.
This afternoon I'm looking forward to the session about setting up a subversion server and how to use it, and then a session on upgrading to OS X Server 10.4 Tiger. I also found out someone from ISU is here (non student) so, I will be meeting him around 6:30.
Laters.

When you get a chance tell Apple to give us full naming/codesense completion back in Xcode 2.1, this just makes programmers more productive. I still don't know why they ever took it out and they still haven't responded to my bug report yet.
