It’s official: Jobs to speak at June 9 WWDC keynote

Opinion and Analysis

But the Apple WWDC wouldn’t be the WWDC without a heavy focus on Mac OS X Leopard itself.

Apple says that both “newcomers and seasoned veterans alike” will get all the “technical foundation and techniques” they need so they can “develop world-class OS X Leopard applications with sessions that discuss every level of the system, including interface design and implementation, application frameworks, security, localisation and networking.”

On offer for WWDC attendees will be more than 150 “information-rich” sessions and labs, with Apple engineers aplenty, ready to go “in-depth” on Leopard and the iPhone.

Developers are encouraged to “bring code to the labs” so they can work “one-to-one with Apple engineers”, allowing them to apply “development methods and best-practices gained from sessions to enhance their applications”.

Other WWDC highlights that Apple has highlighted include:

- sessions by engineers on all versions of OS X, with the iPhone tracks including the SDK, Cocoa Touch, the iPhone Interface Builder, Xcode and more

- hands-on sessions to learn “Apple’s own coding strategies and techniques”

- tech labs to work one-to-one with Apple engineers; and

- and other “special events”, including the Welcome Reception, Apple Design Awards, Lunchtime Speakers and Stump the Experts.

Ah, the WWDC, and the 3G iPhone. So close, yet still so far away!
