Question for Detroit JUG Members   Topic List   < Prev Topic  |  Next Topic >
Reply < Prev Message  | 
Hello everyone,
 
I have a question to ask the group. 
 
As many of you know, Marvin Toll, Pillar and Pillar's Michigan Agile Enthusiasts are organizing a conference for March 2010. 
 
 It sounds like a good event for Michigan. It sounds like the price of a ticket will not be above $40 and Kent Beck will be the Keynote.  They plan on having the event in Dearborn.
 
Marvin has asked that the Detroit Java User Group "co-host" this event. After speaking to Marvin last week, I felt I should get some feedback from the group.   
 
What benefits do you think our members and our group should receive if we lend our name to this event?
 
Under what conditions do you think we should or should not lend our name to this event?
 
You can write me directly if you prefer.
 
-David
