Wednesday, Ordina did a seminar about Sharepoint 2007.  Around 15 people attended the seminar and they have learned a lot about brewing a sharepoint 2007.  At the end a bonus was given about Silverlight.  Here are a few pictures (again with my cellphone).

Yesterday Ordina organized a SharePoint session (“Portals voor fijnproevers”) about Portals using SharePoint and DotNetNuke.  Around 20 people have attended this session. Afterwards we had a tour in the brewery of around one hour and which ended with a tasting of the Famous Geuze and Rasberry beer.  I have taken a few pictures with my cell phone so sorry for the poor quality, but it gives you a good idea of the famous Ordina sphere @ their events .

For those who want to know how to start with MOSS or Sharepoint, the Ordina N-Technologies team is delivering two very interesting seminars with very good content.

1. "Portals voor fijnproevers", June 26th 2007 @ Brouwerij Cantillon (Gheudestraat 56, 1070 Brussel) : this seminar is intended for a Business audience. More info.
2. "SharePoint 2007: fuzz & facts" June 27 2007 @ Interleuvenlaan 15H, Haasrode : this seminar is intended for a Technical audience + Gill Cleeren will give you a smashing preview on Silverlight (aka WPF) !!! More info.

Our Sharepoint consultants will also be there, so this is your time for free consultancy, ask the experts !!!

OK, Jan already did a post about this event. But at the customer where I was today I didn't have an internet connection (at htis moments you know what you're missing).  And as you can read futher, I didn't want to update my blog late this night (or morning).

But, yesterday I went to this event, where three speakers come to talk about, mostly, Sharepoint and Infopath.  First we had Yves Kerwyn.  he talked how to use the underdog program Frontpage to create your teamroom layout (or change).  I only can say, yves is in really love with Frontpage 2003 (What is your wife telling about this ).  And I was amazed what you could do with this product.  Then, Jan Tielens came on stage.  He talked about the development of web parts.  Within a short time he created some simple webparts, which shows us a lot of possibilities (even connectable webparts where included).  Jan had also some nice tips for us.  And last but not least, Patrick Tisseghem.  he showed us the new infopath toolkit.  And as you could read before in my Blog, I will try this also as my next step.  I was amazed that when Patrick asked who already have downloaded this toolkit (togheter with the SP1), and who already programmed in it, that nobody else (except me) in a room of 90-100 people raised his hand.  Or nobody wants to say, that's also possible.  At the end Patrick, showed also some forms published in sharepoint.  And we learned that there is a Sharepoint space, where documents can disappear and never appears again (just like a black hole in space, but now in Sharepoint).

Afterwards there was a little drink the hotelbar.  When this was over, we went with 8 people (Patrick Tisseghem, Yves Kerwyn, Inge ?, Tom Mertens, Wim ? and two others (one guy and a girls form U2U who's names I forgot) to 'Den Uiver' for a good talk and discussion, we even talked about Lotus Notes (or must i say Lotus Klotes -> PS : This is my own opinion).  A sad thing for someone was that there was no Guiness, no snacks because the kitchen was closed till 8 march and when we ordered 4 little bags of chips they said that there was only one.  But OK, around 0.30 we all went home.  Thanks guys and girls for the nice evening.  Hope more of these will follow.
