Most of the activity in the group happens on the mailing list. I’ve been lax in making sure the blog stays updated. Please join the list if you’re interested in keeping up.
On Monday, Jan 25, we will be having a evening meeting at Prism. Rather than doing a presentation, this will be more of a coding share/hackfest. Our focus will be on testing but any code discussions are welcome.
Check out the mailing list for more details.

“Imagine a world without SQL, a world where your database doesn’t even have a schema, a world where you don’t have to worry about shoehorning your objects into relational tables.” Well this is the world promised by CouchDB, the new document oriented database from the Apache Foundation. So come out and see if it lives up to all the hype!
Presenter: Colin Alstad, Prism Content Solutions
Date: Tuesday, May 26, 2009
Doors are open at 11:45am so we can chat before the presentation begins at 12:00pm. If you’re pressed for time at lunch, feel free to come right at 12:00pm.

Ryan will be your guide through the wonderful world that is HAML & SASS. Be prepared to take your markup to heights not seen since Chris “experimented” with mushrooms back in college.
The start time has moved up to 11:45am so we can chat before the presentation begins at 12:00pm. If you’re pressed for time at lunch, feel free to come right at 12:00pm.
Immedion will be graciously hosting us again. Click here for directions.
Lunch will be on your own this month. Feel free to pick something up and bring it to the meeting or just brown bag it. Please add a comment if you’d like us to start providing lunch (for a nominal fee).

Ryan Wood will be presenting on RSpec, a Ruby DSL for BDD (enough TLAs?) . In other words, it’s that hot new testing framework that’s causing all the cool kids to drop Test::Unit like last year’s prom queen and swoon with blind adoration. Actually, it is pretty cool. If you haven’t heard of it, come and find out how you to can be one of the cool kids too!

Currently meetings are held the 4th Tuesday at lunchtime (12pm) at Immedion.
Update: The door that you will enter is actually toward the middle of the left side of the building (in this picture). Simply park in the parking lot closest to I-85 and walk toward the middle fo the building.
From I-85 exit south on Laurens Rd (276). Take your first right at the Carmax dealer on to St. Josephs Dr. You will come to a stop sign. Continue across Ridge Rd. Take your next left through the gate into the parking lot. Immedion’s front entrance will be in the middle of the building facing you.

From Rick…
The second link is closer but their building is located at the end of the first large parking lot. So, if you are coming from 85 and you have turned off on to Laurens Road you will make a right turn at the first light past CarMax and follow that around past the traffic light and turn right at the next side street. There is a big sign saying something like Gold Park. Follow this side street around to the large parking lot. As you go around you will see a small temporary sign where you will turn into the parking lot closest to Immedion. If anyone has a problem finding Immedion give me a call at 313-8361 and I’ll try to guide you in.
Here’s “the second link” he’s referring to. See you at noon!

PLEASE NOTE: We are going to be meeting at a new location this month.
Paul Angell, web developer at Infor and founder of checkpointzero.com, will be doing a demo of a social networking application that he has built for adventure racing. More details to follow…
Immedion has graciously agreed to host us. It’s centrally located so everyone should have a pretty easy time getting there. We are going to have another lunch meeting as it seemed to be a better fit for people.
We will be taking a headcount for those that want pizza and tea at the meeting (small fee to cover the cost). Just let us know on the mailing list if you are interested in participating. Otherwise, feel free to brown bag it.
