Kinect is awesome. Kinect on your PC is even more awesome. An international community of developers creating free, open source drivers and software for using Kinect with your PC is the most awesomest of all. That is what the OpenKinect Community is about. In this session, Joshua Blake, OpenKinect Community Founder, will tell the story of how the community worked together to open up Kinect, demonstrate Kinect working on a PC and some videos of what other people have created so far, and show you how you can start programming with Kinect.

This session will drill into jQuery UI, which is a library built on top of jQuery that includes widgets, effects and mouse interactions that allow web developers to implement sophisticated features such as themable controls, animations, and advanced interactions such as drag and drop. This session presumes you've worked with jQuery at least a little. We'll spend most of the session looking at implementing several examples of jQuery UI such as content sliders, content rotators, themes and the ThemeRoller, Accordions, Modal Windows and much much more. We'll wrap the session up by identifying some key resources that you'll be able to return to as you start to implement jQuery UI in your websites.

"Unindented code cannot possibly work."  I learned how to develop software in an environment where "working software" represented only half of the expectation. The other half referred to things like readability, maintainability, usability; sometimes I find that these concepts were never taught or have since been forgotten. In this session, we'll examine how code quality and human-centered design impact your productivity and your reputation. We'll take a look at several examples (modified for anonymity) from software development, project management, and even everyday life. We'll revisit and reaffirm the fundamentals. We aren't just programmers trying to get software to work; we're software engineers producing high quality systems.

Much like a "Master Class" this session is an open grab bag intended to let the attendees drive the content. Bring your Blend questions, curiosities, problems, issues, and topics. Whether it is through Q&A, impromptu demos, problem solving, or other content, let Joel help you with Blend.

We will demonstrate how to add the Silverlight Unit Testing Framework, available with the Silverlight Toolkit, to an existing project. After adding the framework we will demonstrate the creation of a simple helper method unit test, followed by more complicated UI unit tests, and wrapping up with some asynchronous unit tests. Finally, we will conclude with Q&A. Attendees are expected to have a basic knowledge of using Silverlight and Unit Testing.

Whether you are developing an application with a team or even solo hacking. Keeping track of changes that are made and being able to work with previous or alternate versions quickly becomes a necessary task. Mercurial is a distributed source control system that provides a good collection of the features needed to allow collaboration for you and your team. In this presentation Buck will give an overview of distributed source control systems, an overview working with Mercurial and some direction in setting up an effective workflow for you and your team.

As a code camp attendee, you're probably watching the presenters and consider them experts in the topic they're discussing. In many cases you're right, however, many speakers at this conference are from your local developer community. Local speakers talk about topics they're passionate about in hopes of helping others learn. In this session, we'll discuss your thoughts and concerns about getting started speaking in your community. We'll talk about basic things all speakers need to know: how to pick a topic, preparing for your first talk, delivering the talk, etc.
