August's meeting will feature Luke Amdor talking about Scala.

Come see why people are saying Scala will be the replacement for the Java programming language. A language that combines the good parts of Object Oriented and Functional principles. All running on the JVM.
 
This meeting will be hands on - so bring your laptop and pair up.

August's meeting will feature Matt Morrison talking about Python and the web-framework Django.

Most developers have heard the wonders of Ruby on Rails, but did not know Python/Django offers similar benefits. Thanks to the wonders of Jython, you could run a Django app on your existing infrastructure (Websphere users excluded).

Google loves Python - come see why.

Limited Red Society

You've heard about limiting WIP (Work-In-Progress) but how good are
you at limiting red time? Red time is when you have compilation errors
and/or failing tests. A growing group of practitioners have learned
how to effectively reduce red time while test-driving and refactoring
code. To understand how to limit red time, it helps to visualize it.
In this talk, I will analyze live programming sessions using graphs
that clearly visualize red time. You'll learn what programming
processes help or hurt our ability to limit red time and you'll gain
an appreciation for the visual cues that can help make you a better
programmer and fellow member of the Limited Red Society.
