Topics for SoWLUG 11/3/15

[MartinMcD]

Hi Shalimar, We've started using the Atlassian suite including Stash (https://www.atlassian.com/software/stash) which helps by enabling pull requests etc. If there is a network available I could demo that and show Jira (https://www.atlassian.com/software/jira) as well if that'd be useful.  The pricing structure is great for smaller teams - a 10 user license costs $10.

Mac, that's fair enough!

Martin, thanks for these links. I've vaguely heard of stash and never heard of Jira. Unfortunately, it looks like I won't be able to attend the upcoming meeting as it's quite a busy time here, but I'll use those links as a starting point for some more research.

Thanks again!

Hi Everyone

Due to scheduling conflicts we regret that we are going to have to postpone the LabVIEW User Group for the 27/1/14.

We are currently looking for alternative dates. Martin, Shamimar, Andy G, James: I will be in touc shortly to discuss a date most of us can attend and we can have David Catto/James give the Git presentation.

Sorry for the inconvenience!

Hi Dan,

I've spoken to my manager and it looks like it'll be fairly busy around here until after April. That might mean that I won't be able to come along to any meetings until then, unfortunately.

Hi All

The proposed date for the rescheduled SoWLUG meeting is now the 11th March. Same location as before (Bath Innovation Centre).

If anyone (other than Shalimar : ) can't make it on this date let me know!

Thanks

Dan

Sweet so now that we are only a week away from the meet, can we get an idea on numbers and topics Dan?

[andy_glass]

I will be there.....Any chance of discussion on the recertification process and peoples oppinions good and bad??

[Larry.C]

Barry and I will be there too. Not got enough time to prep any presentation though sorry.

Possible topic that would really interest me:

Creating LabVIEW help documentation - Are there any prefered ways of creating help documentation that gets shown when "Detailed Help" is pressed in the context menu? How do people go about compiling .chm help files? Does anyone use a toolkit to do this?

I would love to hear peoples experience and tips & tricks.

Regards,

Larry

A couple of us from my team will be there.  I could talk briefly about Stash/Jira if people are interested in the Atlassian Suite (https://www.atlassian.com/). We also have recently been using the Websockets library (https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-40572) which is very cool if you haven't seen it yet - one of us could talk about that. Thanks, Martin

Hey Martin,

That sounds good. Do you think you could fit that into a 20 min slot?

Ta,
