PUG Community Day - December 2007

The second PUG Community Day (formally known as PUG Meet) was a big success. On 15th December around 40 people turned up for this and the feedback was really good. In this meet, we saw one 60 year old attendee with 30+ years of experience.

This time we had 3 tracks
The day began with Mobile and Embedded Device Track. In this track Mayur Tendulkar (Microsoft India) took a session on Managed Windows Mobile Development. In his session, he explained about Windows Mobile platform considerations for mobile development like memory, screen, disconnected environment, etc.

In second track i.e. Developer Track, Ravi Patel (MVP – ASP.Net) took a session on What Is New in ASP.Net 3.5. In his session, he demonstrated some nice demos on ASP.net Controls, AJAX, and Web Services in Visual Studio 2008.

In third track i.e. IT Pro track, Vikram Pendase (eZon Solutions), took a session on IIS7.0. In his session, he explained IIS7 installation, new features of IIS7 etc… He also showed some nice demos pertaining to IIS 7.0 like Authentications, SSL Certificates Installation, etc…

All in all, this was a successful event. We want to thank all the people involved in this community activity.
