NI's Most Wanted - Impersonating a Developer
Certain member's of LAVA and OpenG are wanted by NI officials for allegedly impersonating members of the LabVIEW development team during a photo taken for the 8/15 NI Week Show Daily newsletter. These individuals are extremely nerdy and you are therefore urged to contact authorities rather than approach them yourself. See the evidence and eye witness reports...

The Salt Lick (Pictures & Hilights)
Our trip to The Salt Lick was great! We all met at the LAVA/OpenG Booth and then headed out on the road. We had about 30 people make it, which made for quite a lively dinner party. We didn't get seated right away, but 1 beer later we were seated and enjoying the BBQ. We had a great mix of LAVA, OpenG, and LabVIEW R&D team-members, so you can imagine that the fun conversations had over dinner.

Setting Up The LAVA\OpenG Booth
Well, I dropped by the Exhibition Hall to take a look at the LAVA\OpenG booth. We spent a little time setting things up. I had to do all the work! The booth is right next to the LabVIEW history booth so hopefully many LabVIEW geeks will be dropping by to pay homage to the LAVA lamp...
That's me!
Me and the LAVA lamp had a special bond

OpenG Sessions at NI Week
OpenG will be presenting two back-to-back sessions on Wednesday from 11:30 AM to 12:15 PM and from 12:30 PM to 1:20 PM in Mezzanine Room 6. The first presentation is titled OpenG Development System Tools and will be a high-level presentation showing a user's experience with the OpenG Tools in the LabVIEW Development Environment. There will be a demonstration of OpenG Package Manager's integration with the online package repository and directory service (think Window's update, but better). The second presentation is titled OpenG LabVIEW Development Process Model and will go into specific details about the process used in the ongoing develop and reuse of OpenG Tools and libraries. We've left a short 15 minute break in between the two sessions so that folks can run to the Expo floor and grab some food, before coming back to the second session.

OpenG Presentation II - OpenG LabVIEW Development Process Model
Title: OpenG LabVIEW Development Process Model
Description: Developing LabVIEW reuse tools and libraries is a critical step in the maturation of a LabVIEW developer or development group. However, because LabVIEW bundles VI source code with a VI's executable code, it is easy to improperly manage project files. Also, managing project source files, libraries, and other dependencies across several projects can be a tough problem to tackle. Find out which tools, strategies, and methodologies OpenG developers are using to address these problems and how you can use them, today, in your development work.
Date & Time: Wednesday 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM
Track: OpenG
Speaker(s): Jim Kring
Location: Mezzanine Room 6
The Mezzanine level is hard to find. This is not on the top floor. Take stairs to the second floor. If you need to, ask a conference attendant for directions.

OpenG Presentation I - OpenG Development System Tools
Title: OpenG Development System Tools
Description: Have you struggled integrating your development tools into LabVIEW. Do you spend time replicating development systems or changing library configurations? Have you created custom palette views to enable easy access to your libraries? Come learn how the developers at OpenG have solved all of these problems. Learn about the OpenG Package Manager, the online package directory service and repository, the Development Environment Application Builder, the VI Library Manager, the Dynamic Palette View, the Menu-Launch Manager, and many other key components that together make up the collection of OpenG Development System Tools.
Date & Time: Wednesday 11:30 AM - 12:15 PM
(after this session ends, go grab some food and come right back for the OpenG LabVIEW Development Process Model session at 12:30 PM, in the same location)
Track: OpenG
Speaker(s): Jim Kring
Location: Mezzanine Room 6

LAVA\OpenG Booth
This year, just like last, we will have a booth in the exhibition hall. Last year you could locate it by the LAVA lamp on the table. Don't worry the LAVA lamp will be back :) We will be in booth 181 next to the LabVIEW history booth. Come over to participate in heated discussions and see how much of a geek you really are! If you want to organize a LAVA group in your own area then come find out what it's all about.

BBQ Dinner at The Salt Lick
Last year several the OpenG and LAVA members got together for some BBQ, and think that its a tradition worth keeping. This year we will be going to Salt Lick BBQ, where they pile heaps of BBQ'd meat on your plate until you say stop -- literally, since it's all you can eat! So here's the plan...

The Compact Vision System is not a Compact FieldPoint module. Like the Compact FieldPoint Controllers, it is a LabVIEW RT Target. With the serial & ethernet ports, you can use the embedded LabVIEW code to talk to FieldPoint or Compact FieldPoint systems, but it does not plug onto a Compact FieldPoint backplane, nor do Compact FieldPoint modules plug into it.

FYI, the "CompactFieldPoint IMAQ module" is being called "Compact Vision System" or "CVS". Yes, it looks really exciting.

A clarification - the State Diagram Editor is released and shipping. It is an add on toolkit and not part of the pro version of LV, nor is it included in any dev suite package. It's pretty cool! There is a booth you can visit at the expo where you can give it a test drive.

I definitely recommend checking out the Friday session on creating Express VIs... the add-on toolkit for creating custom Express VIs released yesterday and is now orderable. The developer of the toolkit will be presenting the session. The toolkit is orderable today and should ship shortly.

OK, I take the blame. But only in Texas would a brewpub a) not have beer and b) not have food. Hey, at least there was no cover charge!

This week will actually be the announcement. I don't believe it's shipping yet, but it is orderable. There is also, of course, the Express VI Development Toolkit. It's really very interesting too. They're both on NI's Products Pages now so you can get some info there. Definitely go to the session on it.
