The original file that we used for uploading can be downloaded from Vimeo as well. So you just have to log on (or register if you don’t have an account) and download the original recording in the right down corner. The quality of the original recording is slightly better. It’s also possible to   download the original OLM recording here. Keep in mind that this one will only be available for one year.

European VAN on MEF on 28 June 2010

Hamilton Verissimo, aka hammett, proposed to do an all inclusive talk about the Managed Extensibility Framework (MEF) on the next European Virtual ALT.NET (thanks to Glenn Block for setting this up). MEF promises to simplify the creation of extensible applications, offering discovery and composition capabilities that can be leveraged to load application extensions.

Hamilton is going to be the first presenter on the E-VAN that holds a blue badge, so we’ll see how this goes ;-).

Here are the details:

Start Time: Monday, June 28, 2010 07:00 PM GMT*

End Time: Monday, June 28, 2010 08:30 PM GMT

If you got infected by MongoDB and want to learn more, then the European MongoDB conferences are an excellent opportunity. There’s one scheduled in the UK on June 18 and one in France on June 21. The nice folks at 10gen provided us with a discount code that will give all E-VAN sympathizers a 20% discount at registration (use discount code “evan”). We hope you will enjoy one of those events as well. 

Details of the next E-VAN presentation will be posted very soon.
