August Meetup

The next meetup event is going to be at

The Erina Centre, Erina Fair next to the Library

Tuesday 16th August

6:00pm for 6:30pm start

This month we are going to try something a little different, and host several shorter talks and discussions. So far we have the following:

• Ben Black talking about Continual Integration
• Scott Wallace talking about retrospectives
• You - talking about something you have done since last we spoke.

We are hoping this will open up the floor and allow better connections to be made between attendee's instead of the usual talking head at the front of the room.

Please let us know if you'd like to do a talk. Anywhere from 1 to 20 minutes is fine. Even if you think you don't have something of interest to share, you probably do.
