Thursday’s JAOO Program

Here’s what I’ll be attempting to attend at the first day of JAOO Sydney 2009:

09:00: Opening keynote, ‘Composing all the way’ is an obvious choice to get things started.

10:15: Linda Rising’s ‘The Power of Retrospectives’ looks pretty interesting.

11:15 Then it’s going to be a tough choice between ‘How to build an iPhone application in 45 minutes’ and ‘Scaling Scrum with feature teams’

13:00 Probably a call between ‘Domain Specific Languages and Language Oriented Programming’ and ‘How your choices influence your agility

14:00 Most likely will go for ‘Lessons Learned in Programmer Testing’ but am intrigued by any talk entitled ‘Speeding Ducks

15:15 Erik Doernenburg is an interesting guy, so I’ll probably be attending his talk on ‘Builds: From Good to Great

16:15 Linda Rising is doing quite a few talks today and I’m quite interested in ‘Deception and Estimation: How We Fool Ourselves

17:15 Finishing up with the slightly scarily titled ‘Atlassian: An Australian Success Story’. Hoping Baz Luhrmann wasn’t involved…
