At the weekend (06/06/09 and 07/06/09) I’ve attended the BarCamp in Cologne. The event was completely overbooked just within some hours after the registration page was opened and I’m glad that I’ve got the possibility to attend there. A hint for people who try to attend to an overbooked event: just go there and ask on site to get in. Normally they don’t say no.

Some of the dojo guys are traveling around the world, and we are happy to get Pete Higgins, Dylan Schiemann and Nikolai Onken together for a couple of dojo.beers.

1) Amsterdam, 27th April, 19:00 – the first one will be already next week in Amsterdam on Monday the 27th April, this will be a meetup in a restaurant and probably a lot of tech and geek talk and some beer.

2) Munich, 9th May, all day – the second one will be a free full-day event in Munich with talks and time to hang out and hack together. It will take place on the 9th May, starting at around 12:00 in the rooms of the SKYTEC AG (Keltenring 11, 82041 Oberhaching).

For the second time Django enthusiasts are meeting in Berlin on Wednesday, the 15th April, 2009 at 19:30. Find all the details here. And since I will be in Berlin this time, I just simply redeclare this to “Django/Dojo Stammtisch” instead of just “Django Stammtisch” :-). I hope all the djangoers are ok with that (I requested permission in #django-de). It just makes things easier to also meet some dojo people in Berlin. I will also have some cool new dojango stuff to show off!
So if AJAX, JavaScript and Dojo people are around, it would be cool to meet you there and chat about what’s hot and how the beer is. Please add yourself to the attendees list on doodle. And thanks again to the Berlin djangoers for organizing this, I am looking forward to it.

Finally the Dojo Foundation Web Site, a joined work of people from SitePen and uxebu, has launched. The main purpose of the site is explaining the intention of the Dojo Foundation, decluttering the Foundation from the Dojo Toolkit and giving all the other interesting projects under the hood of the Dojo Foundation a corporate presentation location.

You can visit the site, that was build on top of dojango (wohooo) at http://dojofoundation.org.

It was great to work together with the people of SitePen and I hope there will be more things in the future where we can join our forces.

This article describes, how you can create your own dojo namespace within a reusable django application when using dojango. It should give you an idea, where you place your javascript files and how you could structure your dojo namespace directory. When using dojango, where you are able to switch the source of dojo (a remote CDN or a local version), there are several things to consider when creating your own namespace.
