Post by igorw »

Like back in 2007, we're going to have another "MOD Author's Convention" this year! This is your chance to talk to the MOD team and disuss new ideas with othe MOD authors. Here's the quote from the [url=http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=1144195]official announcement[/url]:

MOD Authors Convention, 30 August 2008

Like [url=http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=555989]last year[/url], we are going to have have a MOD Author's Convention in 2008. It's been a bit delayed due to Londonvasion, but now we're ready.

The MOD Author’s Convention is an opportunity for all MOD Authors to meet up and also talk to [url=http://www.phpbb.com/community/memberlist.php?mode=group&g=7331]the phpBB MOD Team[/url]. The Convention will take place in the [url=irc://chat.freenode.net/phpbb-mod]#phpbb-mod[/url] IRC channel (freenode) on the 30th of August 2008. It's your chance to ask questions, bring suggestions and discuss ideas for the future of modding!

To give everybody the chance to participate, we’ll be having time slots with different topics spread over 24 hours. You don’t have to ask your question during the specific slot, but we’ll try and keep the overall discussions within those topics. There are two 2-hour time slots for each topic, in order to accommodate participants in different timezones. You can use [url=http://www.timeanddate.com/]TimeAndDate.com[/url] to calculate your local time. Each timeslot is linked to TimeAndDate so you can determine your local time for that session.
