Open Source & .NET OpenCamp 2010

Later this month I’ll be speaking at Open Camp 2010 in Dallas. I’m really looking forward to attending, participating and speaking at this event! It might not seam like the normal event that would have a Microsoft/.NET track, but I think that is part of what makes it so exciting to me. Open Source and Free are not necessarily the first words that come to mind when people think about the Microsoft Platform, but the fact is that Microsoft and the Microsoft communities have fostered some of the most vibrant OSS communities and projects. I’m looking forward to highlighting some of the awesome resources and tools that are available.

As a preview, here is one of my slides – hope to see you there!
