The technology is a secondary issue. More important is the people on the team and the startup idea. If you come with an idea, and form the nucleus of a team, then Seaside could be your advantage. If you join another team, then you have to go with the interests and skills of that team.<br><br>The organizer, who had been to many dozens of events around the world to facilitate the event, sat with us for one of the dinners. He said that, despite the different languages and cultures in the various cities, the event played out pretty much the same way in each location. I hope to go again the next time it's run here, and I'll try to bring a Smalltalk/Seaside "posse" :)<br><br>_______________________________________________<br>seaside mailing list<br><a href="mailto:seaside@lists.squeakfoundation.org">seaside@lists.squeakfoundation.org</a><br>http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/seaside<br></div></blockquote></div><br></body></html>
