Congratulations to Techno Campo and Oscar Tobar who, from May 30 to June 1, participated in the 6th edition of Agrotón. The event gathered beginner and expert developers to meet one objective: the creation of a mobile or web application to improve agricultural work in Colombia. Teams had to create an application that met different challenges including: easing access to administration, identifying agricultural diseases, and finding the best raw materials on the market. Each team worked during a day and a half in order to propose and develop prototypes for each issue.

Bruce Armstrong attended and blogged about the recent PB User Group meeting in Switzerland.

Sue Dunnell and Dave Fish were present to discuss how the beta is going, and demonstrate its features along with other SAP products. They announced that 238 testers had signed up for the beta, an important number considering the s-user requirements.
