I'm hoping Scott jumps and says "Code Camp Is NOT Heavily Windoze".... Scott?

<rant>I actually am a windows guy, but I think of myself as an engineer first and I have not always been a windows guy.  Considering our platinum sponsors include Google, Oracle, Sencha, Yahoo and others, I hope that speaks for itself.  In general Code Camp's across the world tend to be more windoze, but not ours and I intend to keep it that way.  It's a community event at an awesome place bring together what I hope is the best and brightest (including windows people).

If you look at our TagCloud from last year

</rant>

So Greg, I'd love you to come! (or another speaker if there is someone else to help out).  It's an all volunteer event so if you have to travel far, we can't help with that sadly.

I love silicon valley because for the most part, all the cultures mix.  I hope it stays that way.

-Peter

I could give an adequate talk, but

* We don't use any Windoze, and CodeCamp is fairly heavily Windoze
* We use Continuous Deployment, so our deployment strategy is a bit odd
* We don't use anything complex, so I'm unfamiliar with the complex stuff

I'm betting that there's another local speaker who could give a better talk.

I've personally been using hg for about 9 months and still use it like subversion (and not very well at that).  I'd love to take the next step but don't know how. It would be great for someone to enlighten me an others.
