This was one of the discussions that neither Mark nor Richard attended and we didn't monitor its quality - so its quite noisy as the room faced the street and people were dispersed. If you are interested in the topic, you'll find useful information anyway!

The topic of build and deployment is an area that more and more developers need knowledge in, it's a strange and sometimes painful process in getting the perfect build system running.

Hi everyone,

Mark and I will be attending and participating (hey, its a barcamp after all!) in the NZ Google Barcamp held in Auckland on Saturday, 21st August 2010. If you spot us there, please introduce yourselves! Our pictures are up on Illegal Argument - we are both pretty opinionated as well so that'll help :-)

We hope to see you there and look forward to publishing as much content as we can record. If Mark and I want to go to the same session, you may find a Zoom thrust on you for recording purposes!

Greetings from Mark and Richard!
We have some recordings coming up from the following conferences - we are just finalizing music and checking bandwidth from Libsyn. We'll be releasing content from the following conferences:
* Citcon ANZ 2010 - Continuous Integration and Testing conference. Citcon was organised like a true unconference, hours of discussion went in before the talks even started about what talks should be held, which should be together and when they were held. The talks were mostly discussions with an occasional face-forward talk (e.g. Beekeeping and CI in the cloud) * Barcamp Auckland 2010 - Barcamp Auckland works like a community organised face-forward style conference with lots of juicy content. Unfortunately only Mark was able to be there so we have four sessions for you on NoSQL, Mobile development and more!

Check back soon!
