Wow! What a great NIWeek! The whole JKI team had a great time at NIWeek 2010, and it was completely worth all the sleep we lost running hard to get ready for it. We hope all our friends around the LabVIEW Ecosystem enjoyed it as much as we did, and for those who weren't able to make it to Austin, we're sorry we missed you!
NIWeek 2010 was a big event for JKI. It was probably our biggest NIWeek ever:
- We released VIPM 2010, a huge update to VI Package Manager that dramatically expands its scope of LabVIEW add-ons VIPM can create. It also makes VI Package building available in VIPM Community Edition so you can build and share your own LabVIEW add-ons for free.
- We announced that VIPM 2010 is now the official download vehicle of the LabVIEW Tools Network.
- We launched our new web site and logo (and got some sweet new polo shirts).
- JKI Engineer Justin's Popcorn Tweets demo was the hit of the LabVIEW Community Zone.
- JKI Engineers led or participated in six different technical or hands-on sessions.
- JKI Founder Jim Kring accepted the LabVIEW "Add-on of the Year" award on behalf of OpenG.
