RunRev Media Stars at BarCamp Seattle 2008

Mirye Software, a US distributor of Revolution, are sponsoring BarCamp Seattle 2008, along with partner Paradigma Software.

BarCamp is an international network of user generated conferences - open, participatory workshop-events, whose content is provided by participants - often focusing on early-stage web applications, and related open source technologies, social protocols, and open data formats. BarCamp events are planned based on an open grid, where participants can suggest and present topics by filling in the communal planning grid. BarCamp is a free, volunteer run event, with venues and meals covered by sponsors.

BarCamp Seattle 2008 is being held June 14-15 at the Adobe Fremont Conference Center at 801 N 34th St, Seattle, WA 98103, from 10 AM - 5 PM Saturday, and 10 AM - 1 PM Sunday.

Participants at BarCamp Seattle 2008 will be able to receive a free copy of Revolution Media. A discussion session is planned called Runtime Revolution: HyperCard Resurrection. Runtime Revolution Media Edition allows people with no previous experience in creating software to create cross-platform applications and multimedia projects, then deploy them on the Windows and Mac OS X platforms. Participants can sign up at the event to get a free license, which is fully upgradable to Revolution Studio. Valentina Community Server, the free, Linux-based database server from Paradigma Software will also be available on media at the event.

Participants can sign up for a BarCamp Seattle 2008 badge in advance of the conference at pathable.com/events/barcampseattle.

BarCamp Seattle 2008 is expected to have a broad audience of the software industry, from developers and managers from leading companies such as Microsoft, Amazon and a Adobe to a broad spectrum of Seattle area start ups to academic site administrators. The recently held BarCamp Portland 2008 had participants from Microsoft, Oracle, Yahoo!, open source Drupal project, Open Source Labs, About Us, Go Life Mobile, and Paradigma Software.
