MOD Authors Convention, 30 August 2008
Like
last year, we are going to have have a MOD Author's Convention in 2008. It's been a bit delayed due to Londonvasion, but now we're ready.
The MOD Author’s Convention is an opportunity for all MOD Authors to meet up and also talk to
the phpBB MOD Team. The Convention will take place in the
#phpbb-mod IRC channel (freenode) on the
30th of August 2008. It's your chance to ask questions, bring suggestions and discuss ideas for the future of modding!
To give everybody the chance to participate, we’ll be having time slots with different topics spread over 24 hours. You don’t have to ask your question during the specific slot, but we’ll try and keep the overall discussions within those topics. There are two 2-hour time slots for each topic, in order to accommodate participants in different timezones. You can use
TimeAndDate.com to calculate your local time. Each timeslot is linked to TimeAndDate so you can determine your local time for that session.
Discussion Topics Time Slots 00:00 to 02:00 UTC, 12:00 to 14:00 UTC: Intro, Feedback, Suggestions, and the future of Modding
02:00 to 04:00 UTC, 14:00 to 16:00 UTC: MODX, Packaging
04:00 to 06:00 UTC, 16:00 to 18:00 UTC: Modding for phpBB3, best practices
