OT99 is the seventh avatar of the annual conference of the British Computer Society
OoPs group. It takes place in Oxford, England, 29-31 March 1999.
Established by (amongst others)
SteveCook,
JohnDaniels,
BruceAnderson in 1993, the event has an enviable reputation for exploring new technologies and breaking new ground in the practice of software architecture, design and development.
This year we're pleased to welcome some familiar Wiki names, with a keynote from
KentBeck and sessions led by
JimCoplien,
FrankBuschmann,
BruceAnderson amongst others. Also a technical keynote from
SteveVinoski, the first UK workshop on
ExtremeProgramming, some early XML experience from real projects and more. Sessions are highly interactive - no snooze! no sales pitches!! no hype!!! <grin>
Accommodation is at Christ Church College, the scene for plenty of after-hours BOF sessions, diversions (these have included whisky tastings, juggling, drumming, art gallery and ghost walks, music recitals) and discussions.

Well, it came, we went, it was
good. Thanks to the several Wikizens who contributed, in particular
KentBeck for an awesome keynote. Some threads I'd like to start, to continue and I hope broaden some discussions we had at the conference:
More later...meanwhile, watch out for
OtTwoThousand - coming next year!
