If anyone from the group is looking to go to the PDC and has NOT already signed up we were giving a $200 discount voucher. Please email me and I can give you...
All, Sorry for the last minute notice, but we have to change the location for tomorrow's meeting. NEW LOCATION Redpoint Technologies Sears Tower 233 South...
The meeting when very well, I think.. Anthony (and others) gave a very nice talk on how AOP works internally. I really learned a lot. The discussion after the...
We had 28 people registered for the event (after removing the people that emailed me asking to cancel their RSVPs). If I counted right we had 24 or 25 people...
As you know we had this month's meeting hosted by Redpoint, in the Sears Tower. They were a great host (thank you Eduardo and crew). I personally think the...
I think the world of the Thought Works employees for keeping us and providing ample food and drinks. That said, Sears would be great for us commuters for its...
Being that the Sears Tower is across the street and 2 block from the train, my vote is for Redpoint as well. Next time, I'll have to check the bar out. Josh ...
Hi everybody, Yesterday during the meeting, I mentioned that some people here at Redpoint (including myself) are trying to rebuild the Chicago Agile community,...
There's a bar in the building? I've never noticed this (note to self: schedule lunch drinking....okay, bad idea, delete note to self). It's a block from...
Alright, since we haven't seen any response against the move, let's do that. Redpoint has already confirmed the space availability and the in-house staff to...
When we voted for last month's session, we had other candidate topics. If I'm not forgetting any suggestion they were: - F# - ASP.NET MVC view engines We do...
I vote mvc view engines: asp.net vs nhaml vs brail vs spark. Does anyone know if its feasible with little work to convert MvcStoreFront to use other view...
I'd like to see something on them as well. Could we follow up with a discussion on different client side libraries for controls, validation, templates, etc.. ...
Client side as in javascript? Isn't JQuery the only real library to use, especially now with MS support? Sergio may differ, I know he's a big prototype /...
jQuery is more of a platform or framework. I agree that it should be used over MS AJAX. But I am thinking of rich client side controls like the Yahoo UI...
And to go together with that, how about maybe some client side unit testing? One thing that always worries me is how to test all that client-side code. UI...
Perhaps surprisingly, I don't disagree at all if we are talking in the .NET platform. There's no point looking at other libraries when jQuery is what most of...
I think View Engines is content enough for one meeting. We could have another meeting (December?) covering the UI widgets/effect like those in JQuery UI...
Not the answer you are looking for, but my opinion on testing dynamic web applications: http://blog.jayfields.com/2008/09/testing-dynamic-web-applications.html...
Thanks, Jay. I do like Flex a lot. I agree that flexunit or asUnit are a lot better to work with than anything javascript, but javascript just won't go away...
OK, we have two people to talk about Spark and NHaml. Anyone knows Brail or wants to dive in it to show us on the 12th? I'm curious to see how everyone will...
Thanks. By the way, seeded the database with some names in our list (http://chicagoalt.net/Home/About). If your name is there and you prefer that it isn't,...
