Hi all:
Ten days ago we had our first Open Spaces Coding Day.
There was a few hicups in the organization ( there was wifi there was no plugs) .
We were 7 people, as we all arrived we discussed what we were going to do and then we did it =).
We did some WPF, some Mono hacking(Declan fixed some bugs and committed the changes), and finally some Open Rasta(all of us wanted to be part of this session so we were all trying to create a simple app based on it, and Diego made it run on Mono)
You can find all the code in our repo. You might wonder why is it important to commit the code we do on that day( I know I did), I think it helps keeping the group focused a little bit and it really does work well as a reference back to what happened during that day.
I hope to hear from people to see if we should try to organise another one in January?
I think the venue did not work for us, we need somewhere not too noisy, with plugs and wifi.Suggestions as always very welcome.
Cheers

This sounds like a lot of fun, and I hope I can make it to the next one! Yes, please organize one for early or mid January.
A quiet enough venue for something like this is tough. My suggestions would be Digital Hub, Cafe Novo (underneath the Westbury), or maybe ask someone who works with coworking Dublin like echolibre and see what suggestions they have? I’m sure you could use the Microsoft offices on a weekend, but then you’d have to trek all the way out to Sandyford.
