On 20/07 there was suppose to be another meeting of WDC (the Web Developers Community), but just a short time (and I really mean
SHORT !) there was some kind of an accident just near the lecture hall (Dkalim in Microsoft Raanana) and it was dangerous to have the lecture in place.
Because it happened only a couple of hours before the lecture, we tried to notify everyone we can about the cancellation, but I know that some of you didn't got the message and found themselves making all the way to Microsoft just to hear that it's not happening after all.
I got some emails complaining about the short notice and about not getting an email and only a phone call... well... I guess that you're right and we'll do it next time if we'll have to, but we really did what we can in such a short time. (notify around 200 ppl in 2 hrs, and trying to find a substitute hall, is not an easy task).
Anyway, I hope that you understand this unusual situation and that it's something that really rarely happen at all, but it did, and the best thing I can think of is looking forward and... reschedule.
So... The ASP.NET Internals session is shifted to 03/08/2008, and I hope to see you all there (Everything will be fixed and Tested in the lecture hall).

Of course I'll be happy to get any comments from you, and answer any question.
The ASP.NET MVC Framework is one of the best things happening to web development these days, and... it's just getting better !!!
I was saying that it's one of the best things, because many other things are going on, like DDC for example, that gives you the ability to build a data based web app very quickly and customize everything around it to be Model based, and not presentation based.
On 05/08/2008 I'll be presenting in an "Open house" half-a-day lecture about these two great technologies, how it's working behind the scene, what you can do with them, and how you can combine them both.
I'll of course be using the latest version of them both (a lot of new staff), and talk about future ASP.NET.

Hope to see you there, and of course you're welcome to write me any comments and requests.

As I believed you've noticed, the regular meeting of the Web Developers Community (WDC) was postponed from the original date of 06/07/08 to 20/07/08, and I hope that we won't have many changes in the future community schedule, but... I rather have a good lecture coming up at a different date than not having it at all.
This session is going to be on ASP.NET Internals, and it's a really good one ! it's going to take you to behind the scene of the web platform and let you know how to write better for it and how to squeeze it's juice out and have a nice summer cocktail :-)
At this moment, the event is closed because there are more than 150 people registered for it, so if you wanted to come and missed it, please write me and I'll see what I can do.
It's really great that our community is getting bigger and as the saying goes "The more, the merrier", I'm sure that it's going to be a blast !
As usual, I'll be glad to have any comments and Ideas from you for future sessions.
