Last year's VODC in Hamburg presented sessions on Vulcan.NET at ambitious levels.

German Conference: VODC 2008

Wed, 26 Nov 2008 06:06:19 GMT

This year's VODC in Hamburg, Germany, was one of the most enthusiastic conferences for Vulcan.NET to date. Thanks go out to Dieter Crispien's group for an excellent job, and to all of the speakers who came up with some really exciting topics.

Also thanks to the attendees, who have showed excellent progress with their Vulcan.NET applications.

Fabrice Foray's Vulcan.NET Plug-in for Reflector, is now capable of taking a C# project converting it to Vulcan.NET and outputting a complete VS2008 Vulcan.NET solution.

Willie Moore opened a lot of eyes showing how easy it is to get started in Vulcan.NET as well as a showing a great Vulcan.NET / ASP demo.

Dieter showed us several exciting applications that he is working on for a very large Fortune 500 company based in the US with extensive operations in Germany.

We also had a new speaker this year, Al Acker, who shared his experiences with Vulcan.NET.

Many of the VODC regulars were in attendance, and even Michael Fischer showed up with only a half of a voice due to a cold/flu. Now that's dedication! Thanks Michael!
