 The Busy .Net Developer's Guide To DSLs In Microsoft Oslo
 
     Join us on Tuesday, April 27th in West Palm as Ted Neward explores the basics of MGrammar, the parser-generator language for Microsoft Oslo, and how to create a simple DSL parser in less than 2 hours.
 
     Microsoft Oslo is the new system for managing data at all levels of the data lifecycle.  From parsing to data storage and manipulation, Oslo makes for a powerful system for building tools to create parsers for domain-specific languages (DSLs), to transform ordinary text into a graph of objects suitable (in this case) for interpretation or use as an abstract syntax tree (AST) for a code-generative language.
 
     After enjoying Ted's talk, don't forget to partake in the free raffle, with prizes such as Windows 7 Ultimate, as well as the FREE PIZZA & SODA provided by Sherlock Technology!

Important Notice to Sherlock Clients and Employees of Sherlock Clients
 
Sherlock
 Policy of Non-Recruitment of Client Employees:
Sherlock will not recruit the employees of Sherlock's clients.
 
Problem:

With tens of thousands of  I.T. candidate profiles in our proprietary resume database dating back to the '90s, Sherlock may contact a candidate via email, voicemail, SMS, tweets, facebook, LinkedIn, telepathy, U.S. Snail Mail, etc. without realizing that the candidate has become a client employee.  Client hears that Sherlock is recruiting their employees, and management gets extremely angry. 
 
Solution:
When Sherlock speaks with the candidate and learns that the candidate is actually an employee of a Sherlock client, Sherlock will inform the candidate of our Non-Recruitment of Client Employees Policy and ask for a referral instead.
