Next week I will be giving a presentation to the ctdotnet group on creating a .net build system using open source (or free) tools. I have an hour to talk, so expect things to go pretty quickly. I hope to walk through making a simple app with unit tests, adding it to subversion, building it with nant, and add it to ccnet, leaving breadcrumbs along the way of other things you may want to look at. I will also touch a bit on what is coming in Whidbey that may replace some of the tools I'll be demoing.

For those that don't know, this will be my first presentation. I mean sure, I've talked in front of people many times, but never outside of a business context. Also, the content has never been my responsibility either. This should be interesting :) So if you're in the area, feel free to stop by and watch me ramble. At least if the presentation bombs, the members has a neat career night beforehand ;)
