Calling All MBAS-adores!!

[ericonline]

Hello PowerApps Community!!

Hope you're as excited as I am about attending the 2019 MBAS June 10th-11th in Atlanta, GA!

At last years event, we coordinated some little, informal meetups at coffee shops and pubs around the area and met tons of passionate PowerAppers.

If you're interested in linking up to compare notes and share best practices, lets kick off the conversation here. 

Reply to this post with the following and I'll compile it into an informal agenda as we get closer to the event:

1. Where are some good spots in Atlanta to meetup?
   1. Specifically places that are laptop-friendly and have coffee/food/drinks.
   2. Makerspaces/hackerspaces, coffee shops, public houses and other interesting places preferred!!
2. What PowerPlatform topics are you most interested in learning about?
3. Other things to consider?

Kicking it off:

1. I have no idea where to meet in Atlanta!
2. Most interested in:
   1. Enterprise governance examples
   2. Components in action
   3. Responsive design best practices

Chat soon!

I am super pumped for MBAS! (And fantastic pun! MBAS-adores...so good!) 

As for the questions:

1. I have no idea either. The only time I have been to Atlanta was changing planes at the airport.  
2. As far as topics go, what @ericonline listed sound great! I am also interested in app performance and efficiency. Really, I am so nerdy about it all that I am happy to chat about any Power Platform, data, or adjacent topic.
3. Nothing more I can think of but I'll come back if anything comes to mind.

Great topic! I'm looking forward to meeting up with this amazing community!

Well done for organising this @ericonline - you're doing a great service for the community!

Unfortunately, I won't be there but I hope you all have great fun.

Sad to hear you won't be there @timl. I was hoping to get to meet you. Plus, having more Tim's is always preferable to having less.  Another time perhaps!

Hi @wyotim , my sentiments exactly. It's a shame I won't get to meet you and all the others, but I'm sure there'll be other opportunities. And I agree with you 100% that it's preferable to having more Tim's, ha ha!
