[DUG] Training DVD - Competition to WIN

[Leigh Wanstead]

myOffice Email MessageHi Phil,

I agree with you. That is a good idea. By the way, the winner of the
competition already will be a delphi expert user. What is the point to give
them a training dvd to teach them how to use Delphi?

Regards
Leigh

  Aw shucks, I don't even *have* Delphi 2005! Throw in a copy of that for
first prize too, and then it gets interesting....

    Hi Guys & gal,
    Every once in a while we get some promotional material for the User
Group. This one is offering a free Delphi 2005 Training DVD, and to decide
who gets it I've thought up an idea to have a simple competition.

    I've put the details up on the User Group website .. hey, yes there is a
User Group website ... Nic Wise originally managed it, then Richard, and it
went off the radar for a while, so I decided sometime ago to quietly start
getting some material up using a CMS that I use in teaching (called Moodle -
see www.moodle.org.nz).

    So to help the website get some content, I'd like to propose a
competition to produce the best article / white paper on some aspect of
Delphi. The guidelines for voting will be that it represent the most
"useful" for Delphi developers. Articles should be 2 to 3 pages in length.

    Now I know you're all working away there on projects, and you all
develop something useful for the job at hand, and I'd like to see that we
can foster some sharing of ideas and techniques.

    So please put your thoughts and experience on paper (digital that is),
and email them to admin at delphi.org.nz. I'll post them on the DUG website,
and then in about two weeks I'll set up an online vote so we can all decide
who did the best article. All submissions must be in by July 15th 2005.

    The first prize, at the moment is the Keystone Learning Delphi 2005
Training DVD. For more details about this go to our website
http://www.delphi.org.nz.

    I'll also try and organise some additional prizes for second ... third
... etc. Anyone got free versions of their software to donate??? Up the anti
and all?

    Also any suggestions for the website can also go to admin at delphi.org.nz.
All flamethrowers will be suitably dealt to. <g>

    So let the games begin!!

    Gary
