The more questions we get, the easier it will be to get the panel off to a good start and encourage discussion between our panelists, moderator and attendees.

We still have at least 3 openings on our panel.  If you are interested in being on the panel, please email me, Jason Head, to let me know of your interest.  We’re shooting to have the next Refresh the last week of February, so let me know asap!

The plan is to have a list of moderated questions and also questions submitted through our website, and additional questions depending on where the discussion leads.

Also, if you would like to submit a question for our panelists you can also email me with those too!

For those who were unable to make the meet-up, “live coding” is about exposing the audience to the mechanics of a computer based performance.  Jon served up a small example of this at the last meet-up which you can in Norm’s video:

On a side note – I need to get one of these Flip-Cams!  It would be great to add more videos like this to the site in the future!
