Hi All

Architecture Chat tomorrow - Thursday 24th February - 11:30am,
Garrisons, Sylvia Park.

Possible Topics

• Christchurch Earthquake.
  
• Robot Pebbles ... interesting podcast on building static tools like hammers
  etc. from robot pebbles using electro-permanent magnets.
  
• Mono 2.10
  released.  Also the Moonlight 4
  preview 1 is out - anyone else feel like moonlight and
  Silverlight are two entirely different beasts these days..
  
• Google public
  data - can now upload your own data (API here). Seems
  like an interesting way to take your own data and compare to
  world trends etc. to try and spot patterns you might not
  otherwise have seen.
  
• Some interesting talk proposals here - http://2011.jsconf.us/proposals
  
• Simple.Data...
  seems to be taking shape.
  
• Interview questions for developers.
  
• Friendly
  Digest - simple idea, but I really like it - especially for
  things like support ticket numbers etc.
  
• IronRuby 1.1.2 released.
  
• jQuery deferred in v1.5.
  
• Silver small talk
  - Smalltalk in JavaScript (have a feeling we might have done
  this one before, but just in case).
  
• Full android 3.0 SDK is out.
  
• Fabric for python getting some nice improvements (such as
  parallel execution).
  
• Windows 7/2008 r2 SP1 released.
  

To all those in Christchurch and surrounding areas, our thoughts
go out to you - @freitasm has put together a
good list of online resources for those affected by the Quake, or
with family members if Christchurch.

Check it out
here.

See you all there tomorrow.
