When adding to the calendar from within the chat list page (http://www.microsoft.com/communities/chats/default.mspx#05_Mar16_DOTNETFWK_CL9) it is scheduling it as March 23rd.

Hi Brad,

Could you put the presentation for offline
viewing with only wmv files & the doc (the chat transcript)

I downloaded few videos of earlier presentations & it fetches the media player as well (which is extra download in all videos)

Thanks a lot

Just watched the presentation. I was confused on how to implement IDisposable. The example code you show uses a bool flag to see if this object has been disposed already. But what if your object could be accesses and disposed from multiple threads?

Then, I imagine using a mutex, but then destructors (which call Dispose) are not supposed to wait on any mutexes or the like, right?

Also, it's confusing to have 2 methods called Dispose(), and to have the only difference be that one takes a boolean disposing flag. I don't now how to make sense of that.

The 300k version of the downloadable presentation is pointing at the wrong file (the Member Types presentation).

I've seen a number of folks writing their protected virtual bool Dispose(bool d) method to be thread-safe. Can we have some guidance as to when this should be done? Should this be done in general as a good multi-threading practice?

Tintax - thanks for letting us know, we got it fixed...

Keith -- Nope, there is nothing special about Dispose() that would require it to be threadsafe... I would only do that if there is some external reason why all the methods on your type is threadsafe
