Getting Started with Minecraft Modding

Devoxx4Kids has a unique opportunity you don't want to miss! Arun Gupta, a founding member of Devoxx4Kids USA, will be doing a session on Minecraft Modding with his son. They happen to be doing it on August 15th at 10am Denver time. That's the same time we usually start our Devoxx4Kids sessions! It's being broadcast live and is scheduled to last for an hour. This session is targeted at parents and kids and you can read more about it at the following URL:
