Vancouver Lisp Users Group meeting for October - Advance Notice

Wednesday, September 28, 2005

This is just an early "heads up" so that people have time to mark their calendars. For our next meeting of "lispvan", Ken Dickey will be giving us a talk about his experiences with Extreme Programming and Common Lisp. Many of you will remember Ken from his paper "Extremely Successful Software".

Here's the "official" meeting notice:

Topic: eXtreme Common Lisp
Presenter: Ken Dickey
Date: Thursday, October 20, 2005
Time: 7pm - 10pm (or whenever)
Venue: Tobys Pub and Grill [upstairs table] (see map)
Summary: What's it like to do eXtreme Programming upside down? Don't be a yabbo. Open the esky. Grab a tinny. Come and bo peep why there's no flies on us doing XP down under.

Ken Dickey will talk about his experience in a Sydney software startup doing very high reliability multi-tier, multi-platform software in Common Lisp.

I will record this talk for those of you who are geographically-challenged!
