From Jeff Schoolcraft, organizer of the NoVa Code Camp 2007.02

Today is the end of a wet, rainy week as well as NoVa Code Camp 2007.02 Call for Speakers.  We still have the opportunity for a one or two more sessions to sneak in over the weekend before we start slotting sessions next week.

I'd like to thank everyone that has submitted ideas, it looks like we're going to have a great mix of topics again this time around.

The lightning talks didn't really take off as much as I'd like.  I'll try to snag a few people to do a few lightning talks during the keynote to show how easy and low pressure they are.  Then we'll have an open sign up and try to do a few more during lunch.  We'll take lightning talk submissions until a day or so before code camp.

Registration is still open and we're filling up nicely.  There are still plenty of seats so sign up and bring a friend.

Next Actions:

• Register, if you haven't already.
• Submit any last minute session ideas you'd like to speak on.
• Check my blog or NoVa Code Camp for session details as we slot them.
• Think about giving a lightning talk. [lightning talks defined]
