CDNUG Launch Event: Afterthoughts

CDNUG Launch Event 2005 just happened yesterday in Hilton hotel, Nicosia. We had 72 attendees (peak) with 4 sessions of the Dev. track. It was excellent!

With the great help of Khaled Chebat we managed to organize and present Launch in CDNUG way. There were lot of developers interested in .NET and some of them took initiative to join the group. There will be some photos and comments posted on our website so keep checking for the updates. I'm using this opportunity to thank to Evangelos, Andreas and Cosmin for extreme effort and the time these guys put into the event and made it reality. Having that this was our first big event, we found out some things the hard way and learned a lot.

Special thanks goes to Khaled who presented slides for all sessions, plus whole single session between already tight flight schedule and almost no-sleep time.

Thanks to Microsoft and the rest of our sponsors who supported the Launch financially.

Finally, thanks to all members of CDNUG (and others as well) who attended the event.
