Yeah, I tend to work more on the .Net side, but even from what I've seen of PHP and Java developers, there really is a bit of aversion to approaching/learning JS. So hoping to get a bit more evangelism for JS going.
Hoping to have a good turn out, though no idea how many there will be. Hopefully the JS group's list will be an indicator on this. Also wanting to get the JS side of things separate from any specific server-side tech. Since browsers are mostly cross platform and more and more agnostic towards their JS compatability it helps. Though would love to see support for E4X in something beyond Mozilla's engine. On 2/18/2010 10:30 PM, Alan Dayley wrote: > It is great to see more "coder" groups forming! Go, Michael and team.
