It'd be nice to have an official FAQ for the list...

Found Re: List FAQ and Cocoa learning resources
Sorry. Right after I posted, I found http://www.cocoadev.com/index.pl?FAQs On Jul 21, 2009, at 6:07 PM, Erik Buck wrote: Didn't there used to be a FAQ list for Cocoa-Dev? Several people recently asked me for links to introductory Cocoa and Cocoa Touch information. I pointed iPhone folks to http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/navigation/GettingStarted.html and the others to http://developer.apple.com/referencelibrary/GettingStarted/GS_Cocoa/index.html . The Cocoa Getting Started link was actually hard to find. It is buried under Reference Library and then Cocoa. I seem to remember it being on the front page of Mac Dev Center the way the similar link is on the front page of iPhone Dev Center. Anyway, I didn't find a FAQ for this list. Does one exist? Did I miss it because I always read through Cocoabuilder ? Do any of you recommend technical conferences or training for introductory Cocoa developers? At least one person asked me to recommend training that his company could reimburse. I have always heard great things about the Big Nerd Ranch and enjoy Aaron Hillegass' books. Are there other formal training opportunities outside of full blown university courses? Are there informal courses beyond the fabulous university pod casts on iTunes? There is the annual WWDC. Isn't there a conference in Chicago too? I think MacHack in Flint MI is defunct - right? I know about http://www.voicesthatmatter.com/iphone2009/ in Boston because I will be speaking at it (blatant plug - contact me for attendee discounts...) Are there any other conferences? Are there any in Europe, Asia, or Australia? Is the http://www.cocoadev.com/ Wiki a good place to send newbies in your opinion? I used to think so, but the site seems chaotic and stale now... I would love to be corrected though. ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
