Meetings
Posted By Joshua D. Carlisle on Wednesday, April 29, 2009 This is the formal kick-off meeting of TRINUG's SharePoint Special Focus Group. In this monthly special focus group we will be emphasizing the developer aspects of SharePoint but any and all topics in SharePoint and related technologies will be fair game. This will be a very interactive and social event. Bring your ideas, thoughts, questions along with you. This is open to all who have an interest in learning more about SharePoint whether you've been working with it for years, just got it thrown on your lap, or you're just curious about what the buzz is all about.
In this first session we're going to be covering the basics of Features. Features, although poorly named, are one of the basic building blocks of SharePoint and are essential for provisioning functionality in your site. Without a solid understanding of Features you'll never move past SharePoint Designer for developing robust, reusable, and arguably more interesting SharePoint components.
I would like to give a special thanks out to Mark Weinburg over at Tek Systems for providing the facilities for this event.
Because of the level of interest that has been expressed in the last few months we will be requiring registration for this first event to make sure we don't go over capacity. Seating will be limited to 30.
