| 3:23 |
still listen to you though sebastian i promise multitasking yeah uh ryan why don't you |
| 3:29 |
talk a little bit about dnn summit which is coming up |
| 3:34 |
february the 9th through the 10th so take it away on that by the time we reach the next southern |
| 3:41 |
fried dnn user user group meeting we will have already been through dnn summit 2022. |
| 3:48 |
um the you know date on that is uh i believe it's a wednesday and a thursday that is |
| 3:54 |
february the 9th and the 10th and um it is uh or was still planned as a hybrid |
| 4:02 |
conference so there were in-person components and virtual online components the system that's being used is the same |
| 4:08 |
one that we enjoyed uh last year the hop-in platform which made it very successful and easy for you to both |
| 4:16 |
listen to and participate with speaker sessions um the in-person components uh due to |
| 4:24 |
kovid's continued uptick and uh specifically with the omicron variant um |
| 4:30 |
we've decided that the in-person events the impersonal social events are cancelled if you do find that you've |
| 4:36 |
already purchased tickets and hotel and you're still planning to head uh out there then fear not fearless will stroll |
| 4:44 |
will be in the area and if you flag him down he might buy you drinks and hang out with you for a bit |
| 4:50 |
i know that myself i'm a huge proponent of being in person and having these social events i thoroughly enjoy them |
| 4:57 |
but i went ahead and also cancelled my plans or trips to bring my company in so |
| 5:03 |
just from one reason or another for health reasons or even just simple transportation and lodging and logistics |
| 5:09 |
while you know that 30 of every business and organization is out right now having |
| 5:15 |
problems with staffing and keeping everything going so it just seemed like a good |
| 5:20 |
time for us to decide that the in-person events were postponed however the online event uh |
| 5:27 |
two-day event still happens there's still social opportunities for meet and greet and connections and networking |
| 5:33 |
online as well as of course our sessions we've got 32 sessions planned and if |
| 5:39 |
david you'll stop off on the sessions page i'll point out a couple of different things for each one of the different |
| 5:45 |
categories um because right now is the time when we're driving and encouraging everyone to sign up um at the moment uh |
| 5:53 |
you know the the the event will happen if you don't join us but if you join us you can |
| 6:00 |
participate and if you join us you can learn a lot about these different things so the event will still occur if you are |
| 6:06 |
not there but i will miss you so please come uh now is the time to sign up for dnn summit and uh get your hop-in |
| 6:13 |
accounts logged in too so you're ready to go uh just ahead uh heads up on some of the different sessions that are |
| 6:19 |
available here as always there are tracks different topic sides to go into there's design |
| 6:25 |
marketing intro to dnn so kind of like a level one dnn type thing versus development versus secure development |
| 6:31 |
slash security slash upgrades which is a little bit more in-depth type of things um and this |
| 6:38 |
year we also have a special track set aside for each of the major sponsors of the event so they also |
| 6:46 |
have their own information and even those sponsor sessions are not you know just sales sessions for their |
| 6:52 |
services although certainly you should check out the services offered by each one of our primary sponsors because they |
| 6:58 |
are the leaders in the dnn community they're there for a reason they're promoting themselves and helping support the dnn uh event but they're also |
| 7:05 |
sharing with you their hard work hard-won knowledge and information so there's a lot to benefit from uh if you |
| 7:12 |
stop into any of those um sponsor related track uh sessions that are being given by folks like you know david |
| 7:19 |
poindexter from envisionative and cassidy pearson cassidy peterson from 10 pound gorilla |
| 7:24 |
and mitch sellers and will stroll it's it's going to be a fantastic track uh to pick up some of those |
| 7:30 |
sessions on but if you'll kind of go back to the first in the list we'll jump off on to |
| 7:35 |
design there are a number of good um sessions actually all the sessions are good i |
| 7:41 |
should start by by saying that copy it all the sessions are good but a couple that caught my eye that made me think |
| 7:47 |
i've been working with dnn for 10 years and and know all these different things i'm interested in jumping into some of |
| 7:52 |
these because it's interesting to see other people's take and their directions on things designing for accessibility and ada |
| 8:00 |
compliance and things to keep in mind when you're focusing on ada there are a couple of different levels of that type |
| 8:06 |
of topic that you're going to find through the conference there's ones here on the design side and then cassidy does some |
| 8:13 |
on the intro and the development side as well there are also items in here |
| 8:19 |
about design related focus for tailwind css and going in depth for an hour with |
| 8:26 |
aaron lopez you know he joined us recently to do some of the same but we're going to get even more details and information uh but then we also have |
| 8:33 |
some things around um design and ux and we see those from 10 |
| 8:39 |
pound gorilla folks so there's some interesting and exciting things to see in the design category if you then head |
| 8:46 |
into the intro to dnn category i'm sorry marketing category the marketing category we have uh you |
| 8:53 |
know a couple things like um google analytics four this one from mark saunders caught my eye because a |
| 9:00 |
few years ago i gave a talk about google analytics and google page speed and the way that things were being calculated |
| 9:06 |
and a few things from google's perspective and it's really interesting to see the updates and the things that |
| 9:12 |
are happening um and so google analytics uh version four uh is what he's talking |
| 9:18 |
about here and that caught my eye because i'm not up to speed on that yet i'd like to sit in and get a tour of what i need |
| 9:24 |
to pay attention to and understand the difference of how those things are changing um scrolling down there's another one a |
| 9:30 |
little further down that i was thinking of i mean obviously okay now there's cassidy so then go into the |
| 9:35 |
dnn introduction so that's level one dnn um cassidy has a couple of different ones that are in different places but |
| 9:43 |
there's one here in the intruder dnn that i believe is more about ada |
| 9:48 |
as well uh there are items here uh for how to clean up your site um i'll |
| 9:53 |
mention that if you want to just have some fun and uh egg on the other contestants you can come join us for dan |
| 9:59 |
in jeopardy we'll be doing a dna in jeopardy session um but then we also have things like uh |
| 10:04 |
chris hammond pointing out that when he takes a clean brand new dnn install and |
| 10:09 |
starts working on it uh he pitches here uh the different things to do with a clean install uh to further set it up |
| 10:16 |
and lock it down so i enjoy those perspectives from from different people on how they do things and you'll find |
| 10:22 |
that in all of these categories but now when you move over to the development category |
| 10:28 |
we've got a few different things here you will find items that are talking about some of our |
| 10:33 |
different versions of dnn instances so you've got vangero you've got to plant an app |
| 10:39 |
talking about different ways to take those tools and make even more out of them also examples of how those things |
| 10:44 |
are being used in the environments they work inside of all of it's still based on and on top of dnn |
| 10:50 |
but getting some of these extra perspectives and seeing what's out there is very interesting |
| 10:55 |
um ah this is the one where cassidy talks about demystifying ada compliance and finding the right ada solution |
| 11:01 |
because there are several different approaches i thought that's always a good thing to get into and watch for regardless the |
| 11:08 |
industries and types of websites that you work within there are other uh development items |
| 11:14 |
that are in here that are worth paying attention to um i always focus on the front end so we've got uh |
| 11:21 |
headache-less css and some of these different um |
| 11:27 |
different tracks to take a look at so um security is also in this area and mitch |
| 11:32 |
sellers has one here for managing security within dnn and modern um |
| 11:37 |
things you're fighting against that is important is also another one |
| 11:43 |
with um uh mandeep giving another security related focus about tools that can be |
| 11:49 |
used to help shield dnn sites so these are not things about dnn and the lockdown of dnn but they are tools to |
| 11:54 |
use to detect intrusion to help protect against it to quarantine things once you've found them |
| 12:00 |
so there are a few really good sessions related to security here in this area as well |
| 12:07 |
i think we've covered most of the bases and the things that i saw that jumped out um let's uh let's put it out to the group |
| 12:14 |
you know for instance daniel's here and daniel's on screen with modern uh module development daniel would you like to |
| 12:20 |
give a plug and kind of talk about what you got ahead in that yeah so that's going to be a tips and tricks and uh things i've seen |
| 12:27 |
done wrong and how to do it better for web api um which will cover security performance |
| 12:34 |
scalability and the fourth item i forgot and uh |
| 12:40 |
web components how to wrap up uh look and feel and behavior all in one |
| 12:46 |
little small thing that can be reused everywhere which is super useful for uh reusability reusing |
| 12:53 |
yeah that's good i mean uh concept there david how about yours on the page the um |
| 12:58 |
you know building a mobile app with dnm is the back end yeah that'll be an interesting one uh |
| 13:04 |
where i'll take a real life example of where a mobile app has been built uh |
| 13:10 |
with dnn serving the data in the back end uh through the mobile app and so forth so uh be kind of an |
| 13:16 |
introductory type um presentation really on kind of how |
| 13:22 |
about doing that and kind of connecting all the dots i uh i know it's been a few years back |
| 13:28 |
but i think if you and dnn is the backend for mobile things when i think about that that davidson project where |
| 13:34 |
there were screens all over the town and that was using dnns the back end for something else uh oh yeah not exactly |
| 13:41 |
finding yeah it's exactly it's digital it's not mobile exactly but still uh it was very interesting all right |
| 13:48 |
all right well so that's it uh the main point is uh dnn summit plans are wrapping up now all of the session |
| 13:55 |
speakers are putting together their last uh details on their uh sessions and if you want to learn |
| 14:02 |
what the schedule is you can come to the website to see the individual sessions and the details to follow your favorite |
| 14:07 |
speakers and also like david's doing now just take a look at the timeline of events so you can plan out each hour of |
| 14:14 |
the day when you're going to want to jump over from one session to another and where you're going to be going |
| 14:21 |
so sign up if you haven't already you'll see uh other sponsors such as manage.com and dnn for less and |
| 14:30 |
um even sponsor and organizations such as uh you |
| 14:35 |
know mandeep and um bogdan and dana and sharp they're all promoting to their |
| 14:40 |
client base right now uh the fact that dnn summit signups are going on and dnn summit is next week the next month |
| 14:47 |
so um if you see those emails uh click links on them let people know that you're coming and if you haven't signed |
| 14:52 |
up already get sent out awesome thanks brian thank you also uh mentioned that uh dnn |
| 15:00 |
connect is well underway in planning their 2022 |
| 15:05 |
uh event it'll be in june the 30th through july the 3rd and it's gonna |
| 15:11 |
actually be an in-person event you know barring no um barring no uh restrictions that come |
| 15:19 |
down you know based on the the covet uh situation uh right now but it'll be a |
| 15:24 |
meow france and i think they just sent out a |
| 15:29 |
communication today just asking for people to go ahead and |
| 15:34 |
register if they have intentions to come you know barring no issues with restrictions and so forth uh to go |
| 15:41 |
ahead and commit because i think the facility which they've used in the past for uh one of the dna connect well |
| 15:48 |
actually maybe two of the events uh where we're at this facility i can't remember warranty anyways |
| 15:54 |
yeah yeah they there's a there's an opportunity which |
| 16:00 |
ideally they would have the whole facility to themselves and that um requires a certain number of |
| 16:06 |
attendees so i think they have until the end of the month uh to commit that otherwise it'll be more of an open kind |
| 16:13 |
of uh event uh not exclusive uh to to to them but |
| 16:19 |
no worries either way but if you do plan on being there if you're especially if you're in europe and have |
| 16:26 |
greater accessibility to that area go ahead and check out the event and register if you |
| 16:32 |
can on that or if you plan to attend it will be a great event |
| 16:38 |
for that and you'll find all kinds of details out here about the event and the |
| 16:43 |
cost it still amazes me at the low cost of the dnn connect events because |
| 16:51 |
you know for those of you that have been to dnn summit but have never been to a dna connect event it's quite different |
| 16:57 |
it's a little bit more social based and there's always meals together |
| 17:03 |
and things like that which is really nice so really your lodging and your meals it's all inclusive in the um the |
| 17:12 |
event fee on that so it's amazingly affordable uh including recommendation |
| 17:20 |
exactly and let's not forget about the uh the drinks right yeah but even |
| 17:25 |
that you have you don't yeah it's including the accommodation so you don't have to pay for for a whole extra for |
| 17:31 |
hotels so it's all included and that's really uh worth the money |
| 17:36 |
it's a beautiful uh venue as well uh sebastian did you go to the one that was in mio yeah sure |
| 17:42 |
it's very nice and nice in the countryside it's not at the coast this time but it's nice on the |
| 17:48 |
countryside and uh it's uh really a pleasure to be there in the summer it should be really |
| 17:55 |
a great uh scenery and uh also a great pleasure and i think |
| 18:01 |
usually in summer cove it is not a big problem and so i expect that it will be |
| 18:07 |
much easier to see be together and |
| 18:12 |
exactly exactly now that this photo here i'll mention uh i i think it correctly |
| 18:19 |
from roma isn't this the pool it's like in a uh like an edgeless pool or something i know the pool was |
| 18:27 |
is popular so a lot of good times had around that uh pool uh in the previous event so |
| 18:33 |
yeah check that out uh you can go to dnn-connect.org or dnnconnect.org and they'll forward you there and under |
| 18:40 |
events go to the 2022 page and get more details about that |
| 18:46 |
excellent um does anybody have any other community related announcements that |
| 18:52 |
are worth highlighting here daniel do you have any updates on on dna |
| 19:00 |
platform or anything uh as far as like i know uh things are still kind of in progress to |
| 19:06 |
prepare for 9.10 um me and you were both missing in the |
| 19:12 |
last meeting so i don't have anything fresh but yeah that's the plan |
| 19:17 |
yeah and i know we've mentioned this in the last couple months but just to reiterate |
| 19:23 |
the next release is more focused on getting to a better state with the |
| 19:28 |
default experience as it relates to telerik not being a part of that of course it's |
| 19:34 |
been optional to remove that since 9.8.0 but in in the next release you know |
| 19:41 |
unless you're doing an upgrade it by default will install with telrick removed and you'll have the |
| 19:48 |
option on upgrades to to remove those uh in a more automated fashion |
| 19:54 |
rather than the manual process other than that i know ther
