Another combined episode with RemObjects Radio (we will have our own episodes again soon). In this episode I talk with marc hoffman, Olaf Monien and Daniel Magin about the upcoming Developer Solutions Conference in Las Vegas for this February 2011. There is a discount code good through Christmas on the site. This is a really exciting conference. It is the first joint conference with RemObjects and Developer Experts. We are re-inventing the conference to degree. The idea with the Developer Solutions Conference is to have all the sessions tightly coupled for a specific objective. The objective this time around is introducing developers to cross platform and mobile application development, specifically with multi-tier database applications. It will be a great conference and I look forward to seeing you all there.

Delphi Tage 2010
Recorded live and in person at Delphi Tage in Berlin (I’m still here for 2 more weeks for EKON too). The Delphi Tage (“Delphi Days”) was a short (3-day) conference organized by the German Delphi PRAXiS community forums, alongside Embacrdero and Developer Experts. It provided two days of preconference workshops, and a day with 3 tracks of conference-style talks on various topics surrounding Delphi and Delphi Prism . Our podcast is basically a roundtable discussion with a bunch of people involved in the conference, including the organizers (Daniel Wolf and Daniel Magin), some RemObjects folks, David I from Embarcadero and Uwe Schuster (the guy behind the SVN integration in Delphi/Win32 XE) and Arvid Winkelsdorf of Indy fame.
Since this was so much fun, we decided to share this episode between here and RemObjects Radio.
Update: The organizers of the Delphi-Tage is the German Delphi community represented through Delphi-Praxis, Delphi-Treff and Entwickler-Ecke supported by Embarcadero Germany and Developer Experts. — Thanks to Martin for clarifying that for me.
