Hi all, Just wondering if anyone would be interested in getting together for dinner the night before the workshop, Wednesday Oct 10? Also, there are some folks...
I recently reflected on why I have such a passion for functional test driven development (FTDD), and was surprised to discover that it is a convergence of...
Sounds like an excellent idea. My plane doesn’t land until 19:40pm, however. So, whether I can come depends on how long it takes for me to get to the hotel...
I'm open to both ideas, although I don't know if I'll be able to make it. Cheers, Jim ... -- James Shore, Titanium I.T. LLC voice: 503-267-5490 email:...

My flight arrives at 20:35, so I will miss dinner. If anyone wants to share a ride to the hotel, I can give them an exercise bar on the way. What's the best...

... I like the agenda, the content and the structure. There's one topic that seems to be missing though - "What works and what doesn't work with current...
Hi Elisabeth, I'd like to give a lightning talk. Oh, and speaking of beer and milkshakes, I believe McMenamins also does a beershake. I've never had it, but I...
Hello, The agenda looks great! Having a session about what has worked and what has not (both tool and process wise) like Kevin suggested might be a good...
