On Monday, June 27th, Agile Denver welcomes Ron Jeffries, experienced XP
author, trainer, coach, and practitioner. Ron is author of Extreme Programming
Adventures in C#, the senior author of Extreme Programming Installed, and was
the on-site XP coach for the original Extreme Programming project. This is Ron's
first visit to Agile Denver, and will be an opportunity not to be missed by
those old and new to Agile.

Ron has been involved with Extreme Programming since 1996, presenting numerous
talks and publishing papers on the topic. He is the proprietor of
www.XProgramming.com, a well-known source of XP information. Ron is an
independent consultant with Object Mentor, and was one of the creators, and a
featured instructor in Object Mentor's popular XP Immersion course.

Ron has advanced degrees in mathematics and computer science, and has been a
systems developer for more years than most of you have been alive. His teams
have built operating systems, compilers, relational database systems, and a
large range of applications. Ron's software products have produced revenue of
over half a billion dollars, and he wonders why he didn't get any of it.

Please note that the meeting will be held at the PPA Event Center near downtown
Denver, and not the Qwest Auditorium where meetings were held in the past. The
location is convenient and parking is free. Doors open at 6:00pm for networking
and refreshments, and the meeting is open to software professionals and
students. Visit http://www.agiledenver.org/2005JunMeeting.php for any additional
meeting details.
