Efficient Programming Practices (19:00 – 20:00) – Mathieu Gosselin
In an ideal world without any deadlines, hot-blooded project managers and no picky stubborn designers we would all follow best practices and write clean re-useable code. Unfortunately we don’t live in an ideal world and as developers we often have the constraints of having limited time while we still need to provide a decent outcome.

This presentation will focus on techniques to improve both the speed and the quality (which we can summarize as efficiency) of our programming so you can have a life and more time with your friends, family, or with your Xbox, and still keep the client happy.
It will look at the balance between creating re-usable code, opposed to writing in a time limited environment focusing on the delivery of the the work, and how to adapt our coding to suit the project we are dealing with.

Flex 4 (20:15 – 21:15) – Tink
In this session we’ll take a look at the what’s new in Flex 4.

We’ll also take a look at how to build your own classes on top of the spark framework, including skins, layouts, containers and effects, with some practical examples of some code I’ve been working on.
