TechEd 2009 Day 2

Posted by Owen Evans on Tuesday, September 15th, 2009

Day 2 seems a bit thinner on the ground for dev talks.

Challenging the role of Software Architect by Kevin Fancis Not so much challenging as saying we need them more, which I disagree with, had personal disagreements with the content of the talk and for the first time at TechEd I felt compelled to leave the [...]

Added a sample OAuth consumer in Cocoa

Posted by Owen Evans on Saturday, February 21st, 2009

Well this is my first foray into the world of objective-c programming, but I’ve added a sample consumer for mac os x to the ms-mvc OAuth project, I know it’s not mvc specific (I’m going to write an mvc consumer next) but as I program on my Mac it was useful for me to have a test client that I could just run as an application. It still has work to do (most of my day was learning how to actually get the program up and running, it’s not doing a huge amount yet) but it’s a work in progress.

As will all my projects I like to release early and release often.

also this is my first project using git as a source repository, it’s really interesting to remember that I can check in at any time, it’s just the push to the core repository that i have to worry if everything is building OK. Git is really nice and I will be thinking about using it more in future. I might have to put up an explanatory post to help others that don’t “get” distributed version control yet.

In other news I attended the blackout protest at parliament on Thursday which was interesting, so many geeks in one place without a white board or post it notes was a strange experience. Hopefully we can get S92a repealed but I’m still sceptical of politicians. Will be pushing the blog to be off-line and blacked out completely on Monday so don’t worry if you can’t get to it, it’ll be back on Tuesday.
