devNET Malta is now a member of Culminis

A few days ago our Maltese .NET Developer Usegroup was accepted as a member of Culminis.

Culminis is an international not-for-profit organization devoted to the development and growth of the IT community. After supporting and connecting professional user groups and associations, student organizations, and solution providers for more than two years we have come to understand the goals and needs of each group, as well as the resources they have to share. With this knowledge we are developing programs that ensure a meaningful and equitable exchange of those resources, ultimately elevating the status of the IT Pro both in their industry and in the community.

This is a greatopportunity for us to contribute globally to .NET development as well as allow us to benefit from the support of a global network of IT professionals that share our same goals... To make IT Fun!!

I've secured premises where we can now hold our monthy 'geek meetings', although I kindly asked those interesting in attending to come up with something a little cooler:) The place STC Training is nice and central, well equiped and spacious and has it's own canteen!! So coffee and goodies will be in ample supply!! The center has great labs which will be configured for hands-on after the presentations so that attendees can get their hands dirty!! Some of the first few topics will be based on the following areas:
AJAX
Remoting
Security
3D Graphics
Asynchronous programming
"Click-once" deployment

Sessions are expected to last approximately 1-1.5 hrs and take place once a month initially, at 6:00pm on Tuesdays. So please block your diaries!!! More News later.
