Here’s a new thing to add to your list of things you must do this weekend — right alongside attending the Sweet Pea and S.L.A.M. festivals: Go and sit in windowless rooms at MSU with a bunch of computer programmers.
OK, that makes it sound far worse than it will be. Bozeman is actually hosting BigSkyDevCon, a conference for software developers, Web designers and tech business leaders. The Chronicle’s article is [here](http://www.bozemandailychronicle.com/news/dailyfeatures/article_2a4fc642-dcf9-11e1-a1da-0019bb2963f4.html?soc=2a4fc642-dcf9-11e1-a1da-0019bb2963f4), you can get all the event details you want there, or you can visit the conference’s website at [bigskydevcon.org](http://www.bigskydevcon.org).
The organizers, Rob Irizarry and Rob Lund, are members of Bozeman’s [Montana Programmers](http://www.meetup.com/Montana-Programmers/) group. The statewide group boasts more than 400 members who have held more than 150 meetings. It’s biggest chapters are in Bozeman, Helena, Kalispell and Missoula.
