Yesterday I did my certification exam (70-536) and I passed it :) So now that I have finished the conferences, studying,... I can get back to Jade. I'll be posting soon a call for help in several places trying to get some graphic programmers as I said here and keep advancing in the AI and documentation in the meanwhile.
A little late as usual, but here are the presentations and demos from the last lectures I gave. For the XNA conference in the UPSAM:

For the AI conference in the UAH:

I haven't included the ZombieNow code (the graphs demos) as it's a project I'm doing with some other people and it's not finished yet, but as soon as we finish it I will post it here (it's a small "heroquest" remake in WPF).
Today I finished my last planned conference before starting summer break. It was in the Universidad de Alcalá (UAH) about Artificial Intelligence applied to computer games and I enjoyed it quite a lot. We were very few people (~10) but there was a very friendly mood even if my laptop decided to die in the middle of the conference (so I couldn't show some of the demos...). First time this happens to me, I suppose I'll have some jokes prepared for next time (and I'll have to think about getting a new laptop, probably a TabletPC :) ). Either way, thanks a lot to all the involved people for the good time I had there.
The conference I did just before this one was in the Universidad Pontificia de Salamanca and was about XNA Networking and the new features of XNA 3.0. Also around 10 people and a very good atmosphere during the whole talk. Thanks to all the people involved too.
I'll publish all the materials for both conferences in the following days (no later than this weekend). Now time to get back to my certification... (*sights*).
These last weeks and the following ones are going to be really busy: several conferences, certification training and exam, closing a project at work,... So I'm going to be a little missing till the start of June. But I have plans in June to set things back to motion again. So stay tuned until them, I'm really looking forward the summer to get a lot of Jade 2.0 work done (as happened last one).
