The Compilers will be playing a live funk rock show and giving a tech talk to walk through the apps we use on stage at the upcoming RMAUG.  For those that don’t know us, we are a three piece band of musicians that write code for a living and spend much of our time working with the Flash Platform.

The RMAUG meeting will be on the evening of Tuesday 6/8 and if you would like to attend, you can RSVP here: http://rmaug.com/

The beauty of this is that you don’t even need to attend in person since there will not only be a couple ways to watch the show remotely, but also to actually interact with our band and affect our music, that’s right, affect our music remotely no matter where you are in the world.  You just need an Internet-connected device.

So, geeks of the world unite and help us rock the world of Flash Platform goodness and learn something while you’re at it too.

Just as a teaser here’s some of the technology we’ll be using this time around:

• Flash 10.1
• AIR 2
• Adobe Stratus
• Merapi
• Megaphone
• Flash CS5
• Flash Catalyst CS5
• Flash Builder 4
• and much more…

So get your RSVP on…and experience geekRock as you’ve never experienced it before.

David and I have an article we worked on with Adobe released on Adobe Devnet today. For those of you interested in bringing P2P into your Flash Platform applications this is a good introduction on all the features you’ll have available to you with Flash Player 10.1, RTMFP, and Stratus 2/FMS 4.

There’s good information, a good sample with source code, and good illustrations to help you get going.  The last word document revision I submitted was 28 pages long, just to give you an idea on the wealth of information in this article.

Also, we’d like to thank our Adobe tech reviewers and editors for helping us get through this!

Enjoy!

Here’s two very good reasons to attend 360|Flex in San Jose:

Reason 1:

David Hassoun and I will be co-presenting all that is cool in the world of Flash Player 10.1, Adobe Stratus, and RTMFP.  It’s going to be a great presentation on some of the cutting edge Adobe technology.  So register for 360 and come to our presentation:

Adobe Stratus and Flash Player 10 P2P: Enterprise Multi-user Applications Without the Need for Large Server Infrastructure

Reason 2:

I’m excited to announce that I’m FINALLY going to do my Silverlight for Flex developers talk.  The scope of my original idea has changed and now it’s now evolved into a product compare/contrast, developer workflow, media delivery, and back end system talk.  The cool thing is I’m bundling it up with my friend, and band mate Eric Fickes who will focus on the server side of things.  So register for 360 and come to see the RIATron:
