Yesterday I got it all together! I’m going to join FITC. That means that Carlos Ulloa, John Grden and me (incidentally, we were all at Spark 2005 together too, but we didn’t meet up all together then, since there was no Papervision3D), for the first time will all be at the same conference. I’m thinking about doing some kind of Papervision / OS Flash meetup. Give me a ping in the comments if you’re there too, and would like to meet up!

I just got home from day 1 at Adobe Live (yes, in the Netherlands it’s drivable almost anywhere…no hotel & conference this day). Yesterday it became about 5 o’ clock in the morning after preparing the last stuff for the presentation, so I was a bit tired and chaotic today. A couple of things happened to make that 5 o’clock happen. First of all, I found that suddenly my subclipse plugin in my standalone Flex 2 Beta 3 install, suddenly did work. Secondly….if you checkout stuff to your workspace….be sure to make sure you are sure that it’s for sure the right place your checking stuff out too. ‘nough said. Well. After getting that mess sorted, I got some horribly weird errors from my Flex 2 environment, ruining my prime demo (a Media Player in Flex 2, totally skinned, and with almost all prime Flex 2 features working). It took me a while to figure the problem out. Turns out the wrong checkout did something to the project file in that directory. Got that fixed. Then I wanted to make sure my mediaplayer had a cool fullscreenable visualisation. Alas, 5.

Next week I will be speaking at Adobe Live in the Netherlands (20 & 21st of june). I’ll be doing the Flex 2 for designers sessions. Originally Martijn would do this session, I’ll be pickin up on it now. We (Satama Flash Fabriek) would be doing one session already, ‘the house of tomorrow‘ showcase @ 11:30/the mainstage; this is still on, and will be presented on the 21st by my colleague Elvin, and creative director of Draft, Dagan. Anyway, I’ll be preparing some of the materials the next day. I’ll try and combine some stuff, and have something to post here afterwards.
