Followed the recipe

Well I followed the instructions but will it all come together?


  1. Create a page on the wiki - check
  2. Create a google group (DemoCampMississauga)- check
  3. Create a blog - check
  4. Panic a little & hope that people will respond - check

Am I missing anything?

Where do I start??

So i've spent the last couple of months reading about democamps and being someonce who is involved in software development projects I was/am very interested in attending one. I love the concept of a democamp, they seem like a great platform for getting the word out on what you are working on as well as being inspired by what other people are involved in. I noticed that the toronto demo camp coming up in march so I quickly went to register, unfortunately it was already sold out! I noticed a few people had left some comments stating how amazed they were that it sold out in about 1 hour. This is what got me thinking about hosting a democamp. If there is that much demand in the Toronto area, how much interest is there in Mississauaga? So here we go!

Step 1 - Who will come?
I created a wiki where you can add your name to a list. If you don't have a wiki account or don't want to create one, just leave a comment here. I'm hoping to get around 40 people but I would still do it if there were only 10. I'll be updating the wiki page and this blog as I make progress.
