I was lucky enough to attend and helped present a PreCompiler session on Software Craftsmanship with <a href="http://brendan.enrick.com/">Brendan Enrick</a> (ASPAlliance Editor and another organizer of our local <a href="http://hudsonsc.com/">HudsonSC group</a>). There have been some good write ups of the conference on various blogs, including <a href="http://simpable.com/code/codemash-2010/">ScottW</a>, <a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/saraford/archive/2010/01/17/coding-is-not-kata.aspx">Sara Ford</a>, and <a href="http://stevesmithblog.com/blog/coding-katas/">my own response to Sara s post</a>, if you re interested in learning more. CodeMash is one of many regional conferences that are very affordable in terms of travel and registration expenses. It s probably one of the best among the group in terms of its ability to bring in big-name speakers and a wide variety of attendees (and sessions). The organizers do a great job and the conference has grown to over 700 attendees (in this economy). If you have a chance to go, I would recommend CodeMash, and if that s too far for you, you might give another local event a chance, as these can be great for building up your network of local connections moreso than a national conference. </div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right" style="background-color: #FFFFFF"> <div style="color: black; font-size: 0.7em; font-family: Arial"> <a href="http://stevesmithblog.com/" style="color: #CC0000; text-decoration: none;"> Steve's Blog </a> </div> </td> </tr> <!-- End Editor's Comments --> <!-- Begin New Articles Section --> <tr> <td align="left"> <div style="font-size: 1em; color: White; font-family: arial; font-weight: bold; padding-top: 10px;"> New Articles on ASPAlliance.com</div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right" style="background-color: #FFFFFF"> <div style="color: black; font-size: 0.7em; font-family: Arial"> <a href="http://aspalliance.com/recentarticles.aspx" style="color:#CC0000; text-decoration: none; font-size: 0.7.em; font-family: Arial"> View All Recent Articles »</a></div> </td> </tr> <!-- Repeat for each article --> <tr> <td align="left" style="background-color: #EEEEEE"> <a href="http://aspalliance.com/1908" class="headingLink"> Solution to ASP.net Theme Conflict with FCKEditor </a> <br /> <span style="font-size: 0.7em; color: black; font-family:Tahoma; font-weight: bold">By shahriar Iqbal Chowdhury , 20th January 2010 </span> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left" style="background-color: #EEEEEE; padding-left: 25px;"> <div style="color: black; font-size: 0.8em; font-family: Arial"> Solution to Asp.net theme conflict with FCKEditor </div> </td> </tr> <!-- End Repeat for each article --> <!-- End New Articles Section --> <!-- Begin Middle Advertisement --> <tr> <td align="right" style="background-color: #CCCCCC"> <div style="color: black; font-size: 0.7em; font-family: Arial"> Sponsor Advertisement</div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left" style="background-color: #EEEEEE"> <div style="color: black; font-size: 0.9em; font-family: Arial; font-weight:bold"> <a href="http://www.componentone.com/Members/?ReturnUrl=%2fDownloads%2fDefault.aspx%3fview%3dDownload%26downloadID%3d81&amp;utm_source=aspalliance&amp;utm_medium=newsletter&amp;utm_campaign=jan12">Get a Complimentary Developer-Focused Newsletter Subscription Delivered to Your Inbox</a> </div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left" style="background-color: #EEEEEE; padding-left: 25px;"> <div style="color: black; font-size: 0.8em; font-family: Arial"> <p> Sign up for the ComponentOne Studio Tech Connection where you will find technical articles, product enhancements, the latest resources, event news, and more news relating to Visual Studio development.
