Sourcecontrol, A Tool For Every Developer

You should always use sourcecontrol, even if you work alone. We'll cover why a decent backup is never enough for a developer, the advantages of branching and demonstrate how to set up sourcecontrol and use it with Xojo. If you don't use sourcecontrol yet because you think it is a lot of work, it is too complicated or you think you'll be fine with Dropbox, this session is definitely for you.

An interesting fact/hobby/interest that others may not know about you.
I play board games and roleplaying games (like DnD, World of Darkness, ...) with the same group of friends since high school age. Before we were married and got children it was organised each friday evening, now we try to keep doing this hobby once each month on any evening that works for most of the group.

Favorite TV show, band, and/or movie?
Favorite band: Coldplay
Favorite movie: Back to the future (Not that I watch it over and over again, but I liked this one the most)

If you could survive on only one food or meal for the rest of your life, what would it be?
Lets hope this never happens, there are just too many different tasty foods and drinks around to stick to just 1 choice.
