BCB6 - A try to gather people with a common interest on DSL

Hi Folks,

I have planned to discuss/present about my ideas on Domain Specific Languages at BCB6.

Please comment on this post / mail to me, if you have any idea of presenting something in BCB6 about:

1. Domain Specific Languages
2. Meta programming
3. UNIX little languages
4. Software Factories
5. XML
6. MDA (Model Driven Architecture)
7. LISP
8. COBOL
9. APIs
10. Internal DSLs in Ruby (!!)

All these topics converge towards the broad concept, DSL.

Here are some links that can help you to start with:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain-specific_programming_language
http://web.cecs.pdx.edu/~timm/dm/dsl.html

I think more people from ThoughtWorks will be interested in this stuff. We could turn it into a small-scale collective.

I doubt that I'm i over-enthusiastic as this is my first Barcamp to attend. Please let me know, if so :)

Barcamp Bangalore 6

I don't think necessity is the mother of invention. Invention, in my opinion, arises directly from idleness, possibly also from laziness - to save oneself trouble.-Agatha Christie

After a long long time, am back to this blog as most of the bloggers do. I was quite busy with a couple of exams and busy days in office.

This time, I would like to recommend you all to attend the Barcamp Bangalore 6 to be conducted by this March. The date, venue and sessions are not yet confirmed.

Starring at the new word, BarCamp? In one word, they call it an unconference. Merely, like Wikipedia, where anybody conduct a session on any technical topic. The only qualification for registration is "You must be techno-savvy."

Most of the Barcamp enthusiats are budding entrepreneurs and some of them research-savvy. Anyhow, that would be a great time for me at the least.

Follow these links to know about the event and Barcamp:
