Dutch Adobe Usergroup alive

12 July 2007 | filed under AUG, community | no comments »

Last week, the first meeting of the revamped Dutch Macromedia Usergroup, to be called Adobe Usergroup from now on, was held in Amsterdam. Topics were Flash CS3 integration (with other CS3 software like Illustrator and Photoshop) by yours truly, PaperVision 3D by Ralph Hauwert and Photoshop and 3D by Niels de Keizer.

First AUG meeting

A lot of people dropped by to attend to the sessions, so we had a great afternoon and good conversations. After the presentations, we had dinner and in the end we were kicked out of the restaurant at 1:00 AM. So I think it is safe to say the first meeting was a great success.

We (the usergroup management) want to broaden the audience for the AUG to not only include Flash and Flex developers as we did traditionally, but also organise sessions for designers, motion graphic designers and professionals from user experience and interaction disciplines.

We are also looking at inviting some of the Big Names to come over to Amsterdam and show of their work and ideas.

So, if you live in the Netherlands, keep an eye on the website and make sure you pay us a visit at the next meeting!
