Let's have a meeting Thursday April 5, 7 PM at the Wired Monk.

Everyone is welcome, including the lurkers on the list. ;)

Cheers,
Ryan

P.S. If there is a different time that's more convenient for anyone
who would like to come, please let me know. It's no trouble to reschedule.

P.P.S. If you'd like to come to a meeting but don't know what we look
like, let me know. We can post photos somewhere online.

We just talk about whatever people feel like talking about. :)

So far, we've had small enough gatherings that this has worked out
well and we've always had a chance to talk about the things each
person is interested in, so we haven't felt a need to decide on topics
in advance. However, if people would find that useful, we certainly
could set topics for some future meetings (just make suggestions to
the mailing list).

Cheers,
Ryan

I'm interested, but my calendar is pretty full this week. Any ideas of
date/times?

Hi all;

Anyone interested in a get-together next week? I suggest Thursday at 7
downstairs at the Wired Monk (corner of Hollis and Morris). It's a
little quieter than Henry House, and they also have beer. Thoughts?

Cheers,
Ryan

I guess we're back to the default time/location: Henry House Pub, 7 pm.

Cheers,
Ryan

Anyone opposed to moving the meeting to Wednesday evening?

Let's tentatively say 7 PM at Henry House pub?

Cheers,
Ryan

Hi all;

Is anyone interested in having our first meeting of 2007 sometime
soon? Dmitri and I will be in Halifax from next weekend to the one
after that. I was thinking Thursday, Feb. 1, either at Henry House
again, or the Quest board room if that's possible.

Thoughts?

Cheers,
Ryan

P.S. I hope everyone feels free to invite others who are using agile
practices or who are interested. The bigger community we can build,
the larger the pool of knowlege and experience we can draw from. :)

Thursday after work, works for me.  Anywhere is fine.

Hey everybody,

What is everybody thinking about getting together for our first
in-person meeting? How about thursday after work? Gingers or Henry
house?

Cheers,
-Dmitri

I need one person to volunteer to take the information for the ftp
login for the AgileHalifax.com site.  If you would like to select
wiki/CMS/blog software, and then install it, that's fine.  The system
is a LAMP system and also has Java.

Mishkin

I think that is a great idea!

Cheers,
Jeff

Subject: [agile-halifax] Hey Everyone! and agilehalifax.com



Dmitri let me know about this group. I have the domain
agilehalifax.com and would be happy to donate it to this group. Right
now there's just some placeholder stuff on it. I could easily install
a wiki and/or blog and give someone admin rights to maintain it. All
I would ask is permission to have a "Sponsored By" type advert on it
and a link to my Agile Advice blog somewhere appropriate (e.g. on a
page of agile resource links).

Interested!

Hmmm, it's a broad subject.  I would certainly be interested in raising
   my understanding of all agile practices/thinking, so hands on
sessions/tutorials would be of interest.  I'm not concerned with any
particular area, I'm more interested in gaining a better understanding
of these things from people who are actually using them day to day.
Where to start?  Probably TDD and applying refactoring/TDD to legacy
code.  Perhaps there is value in asking other groups what they have
covered re: practices, tutorials at least as a starting point.

I'd like to meet at least once a month.  That gives a bit of time to
read up on areas, prepare presentations etc.

As for where we can have meetings, my workplaces are a no go due to
security restrictions unfortunately.  Does anyone have any contacts at
either Dal or SMU, perhaps they have facilities we could use.

I do know of a couple other guys who might be interested in joining this
group and might be able to provide a place for meetings, are we
interested in additional members?

Hey everybody,

I would like to start discussion about Agile Halifax user group and
the direction we want to take it.

What topics are members interested in? Is there any interest in having
hands-on sessions/tutorials (what practices/technologies)?

Where can we have meetings? How often can we have meetings?

Cheers,
-Dmitri
