Another weekend, another community event: last Friday/Saturday I was at the Italian MVP OpenDays in Milano and next Friday (October 24th) I’ll be talking in front of more than 70 person (the event is sold out) at the “ASP.NET 3.5 and beyond Web Development” workshop organized by DotNetSide, the .NET usergroup of South Italy.

I’ll speak for 3 hours (and probably more) about ASP.NET MVC and the new features that the .NET 3.5 SP1 brings to the table.

There will be 2 sessions:

• Life after SP1: I’ll talk about Dynamic Data, Routing, the new ASP.NET Ajax features and the improved javascript intellisense combined with the annotated files for jQuery. (Level 200)
• Introduction to ASP.NET MVC: what it is, how it works, why it matters and how to test it. (Level 300)

For more information and the agenda go to the usergroup site (sorry, Italian only).

This will be my 6th presentation on the ASP.NET MVC Framework of the year (4 public and 2 held internally in Avanade).

A bit thank to Wrox for the free books about Web Development (ASP.NET 3.5, Silverlight, etc…) that will be given to people asking interesting questions (or answering trick questions).
