Looking for Speakers/Topics

If anyone has any suggestions for a topic of conversation, or a speaker that might be willing to present something on Agile for about 15-20 minutes, please respond and let us know! There aren't projection facilities but someone could just get a round-table discussion going, or say a few words about a particular topic.

Please let us know by responding to this post.

thanks!

September Agile Beer Night

Please join me on Tuesday September 30 from 5PM to 7PM at the Celtic Bayou Cafe and Irish Pub in Redmond for September's Agile Beer Night! We don't yet have a topic for discussion or a guest presenter, but please stay tuned...

Do you practice Agile software development? Do you want to? It's open to all, so please come join us, have a pint, and discuss Agile Development! Tell two friends, and then bring them along!

ยก vivan los agilistas !


P.S. Please let me know if you are able to attend by adding a comment, so that I can let the establishment know how many people to expect.

P.P.S. For those of you who are in Seattle, there is a direct bus, the Sound Transit 545 that runs very frequently all evening, and has a stop in Redmond literally across the street from the pub. That makes it really easy and no driving and parking! Plus then you can have an extra pint! Bonus!

Become a Certified Agile Developer!

The UW Extension for Professional Development and Continuing Education now has a Certificate Program in Agile Development. It's being taught by some guys I used to work with first-hand, so I happen to know they are all pretty good at Agile Development. They are certainly highly qualified, and this certification course is a good opportunity for those folks who may not be as familiar with Agile principles to get some good instruction on how to do it well. Be sure to apply now, as this course is likely to fill fast.

Agile Beer Night

We the practitioners of Agile and users of Beer, hereby proclaim Agile Beer Night.

The Agile Beer Users Group (Seattle Chapter) will be meeting on Thursday Aug 21, for information sharing, networking, agile discussions, a brief topic presentation on Automated Acceptance Testing, oh - and BEER. Come meet us for a discussion and brief presentation on Agile practices each month.

There is good food, good beer, and a good chance to meet some of the folks who do agile development in the Pacific Northwest, get to know their tricks, and share in their success. The Owl has a fine selection of food, drinks, and spirits for those who choose them.

ABN next meeting will be held in Seattle at the Owl and Thistle Irish Pub and Restaurant at 808 Post Avenue in downtown Seattle from 5PM to 8PM on Thursday August 21 2008.
