A while ago I did an article on what I would like to go see, based on the likely sessions, but giving no thought to the schedule (which was not out at the time): Scotch on the Rocks: which sessions am I going to? (2014 version).
Now the schedule is up, so I'm able to revisit my initial thoughts and formulate a plan of attack.

Thursday |
|
Matt GiffordEnhance Your Workflow with Grunt.jsAs in my previous article... I know I need to learn about Grunt, and I just don't find time to do it. This should be a good intro. |
Simon Elliston BallWhen to NoSQL and When to Know SQLI'm not that interested in DBs, TBH. They're just a place to stick data. Shrug. |
Kitt HodsdenAutomate All the Front End ThingsI'm hoping our UI Team representative goes to this one (I'm looking at you, Chris...). I don't do enough front end stuff to warrant seeing this, although it sounds all right. |
Kai KoenigDigging in the Dirt for Gold? The Internals of the JVMKai will be looking forward to me giving him accent-coaching ;-) |
Rakshith NareshSplendor and Secure CFML applicationsCan we please stop calling it "Splendor" now? It's been released. We don't need code names. |

Show & Tell |
|
David BoyerAll Aboard the NodeJS ExpressThis is probably the session I most want to see at SotR. |
Kev McCabeUnit Testing Legacy ApplicationsKev didn't stand a chance with this up against David's presentation. Sorry mate. |
Dale HarveyThe Offline Web |
Benjamin HowarthCanopy View of Single Page Applications (SPAs)Neither presentation in this slot are of interest to me, but I need to go to one of them. Or the bar. |
Bruce Lawson, Anna Shipman, Dale Harvey, Kitt Hodsden & Phil Leggetter"When is enough enough?" |
|
Friday |
|
Rob DudleyRocket Powered Ramp Up with Bower, Grunt & YeomanAll tools I feel I should know something about. |
Jatin NandaI am Chef, and Welcome to my KitchenBut this will be a good one too, for the same reason. So need to decide: have a look at a few things; or focus on the one thing? |
Bruce LawsonDo You Dare Tour the Sausage Factory? |
|
Phil LeggetterReal Time Web Apps in 2014 and BeyondThis just sounds slightly more interesting than cloud stuff. Sorry Mark. |
Mark DrewDeploying to the Cloud |
Lunch | |
Anna ShipmanAutomating GovernmentIt's about provisioning kit, which I'm not terribly interested in, I'm afraid. |
Thomas ParisotSolid GruntMore Grunt. Why not? |
Corinne Krych & Fabrice MatratEmbedded DSL: Groovy and Scala Fair DuelThis. Sounds. Cool. |
|
Kay SmoljakBuilding Single Page Web Sites the RIGHT wayNot sure which of these I'm more interested in... |
Andy ClarkeTechnical Debt: Is Your Code Base Approaching the Fiscal Cliff...... but I'm erring towards this one. It's slightly more relevant to my day-to-day work. |
Tuuli Aalto-NyyssönenHow to Rock Your Planning SessionsI think everyone from our team could benefit from going to this one. |
Simon WoodStatic Sites Can Be the SolutionThis'll be interesting, but not as relevant as the other track. |
I'm out of lunchtime, so I need to press "send" on this.
