The Design Master Class will be held here in Belgium in October (5-9) this year. Our team just subscribed, so I can finally sleep well now: I’ll be there ;-) .

I don’t know if you’ve heard about this class, so let me give you some background information. It’s a five day workshop given by Dino Esposito, one of IDesign’s trainers. The course include topics such as object-oriented principles and patterns, class design, domain-based design, persistance ignorance, and so on…

My ex-colleague Pieter Gheysens, who just founded his very own “Sparkles” was so kind to organize this course for us here in little Belgium! I’m convinced that this is one of the best courses you can attend here in Belgium, and I don’t know about you, but I’d be willing to give up attending any other events or courses to follow this one!

Just take a look at the full course details here and you’ll see what I mean! And by the way, don’t let the price tag scare you because of the financial crisis that’s going on… Remember it’s a 5-day course, and remember what it’s about. I’m sure the ROI will be worth the investment. Think about the impact of such a workshop on your team’s development… ;-)

Congratulations Pieter! I’m looking forward to it… and hope to see you all there :-)

It’s nice to get a short introduction into some things I haven’t been following to closely lately.

You never know if I finally change my mind, but this is my choice of sessions for now (you can find the whole agenda here):

March 10:
- The future of C#: a first look at C# 4.0
- Silverlight 2.0 CoreCLR: Bringing the power
- Code contracts, Pex, CHESS, 3 tools for 1 talk
- Lean principles, Agile techniques and Team System
- .NET Services: Infrastructure building in the cloud

March 12:
- Building workflow services in .NET 3.5
- ASP.NET MVC for smart people
- Pex – Automated white box testing for .NET
- ASP.NET 4.0 what is coming? How do I prepare my app?
- .NET CLR 4: Working better together, faster with fewer bugs

I will also attend the pre-conference and follow the “Software + Services: the convergence of SOA, SaaS, Cloud computing and Web 2.0″ track.

If you’re going, I’ll see you there ;-) !
