			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Just a reminder that Desert Code Camp is this Saturday, June 13th, at the DeVry University Phoenix campus. It&#8217;s 100% free and has content for pretty much all your popular languages, so developers and students don&#8217;t have  much of an excuse <em>not</em> to go. You&#8217;ll want to register <em>now</em> and pick your sessions to make sure there&#8217;s enough space.</div>
<div></div>
<div><a href="http://desertcodecamp.com">http://desertcodecamp.com</a></div>
<div></div>
<div>&#8220;Code Camps are about the developer community at large. They are meant to be a place for developers to come and learn from their peers. Topics are always based on community interest and never determined by anyone other than the community&#8230;Code Camps are always free for attendees&#8230;The success of the Code Camps is that they are based on community content. All content that is delivered is original. All presentation content must be provided completely (including code) without any restriction. If you have content you don’t want to share or provide to attendees then the Code Camp is not the place for you.&#8221;</div>
