Since a few people have joined, I'll shoot out some basic information. First, if you don't know what a Dojo is, you can visit http://insomnia-consulting.org...
I've decided to open the group.. There was a lot of interest and I figure you all can help me scale the meetings up to meet demand. So, as long as we still get...
Greg, I had noticed yesterday that you had a list of attendees for the next meeting on the wiki. Could you maybe put that in the discussion section of the...
... I removed the signup information, because I'm going to open the group to anyone. The size restriction was because I felt the dojo format wouldn't scale to...
Greg, Though group is open to anyone, will you want to know who is attending each meeting so resources and such can be readied. For instance, I am fairly ...
... I'd like to have a general idea of the size of the group, though I doubt we'll outgrow the training room at Pgh Tech Council. I'd also like to be sure 50%...
Hi. The main Pgh Coding Dojo site suggests that all programming languages are welcome, but the wiki notes for the April 27th meeting say, "Again, for this...
... I really want to encourage other languages to be used. What I was thinking, however, was that everyone would use the same languaeg during a given meeting....
Greg & All, I am all for multiple languages. I think that's the main reason I joined. I have solid Perl skills, but am not as up to speed with Java. I would...
... That sounds good. Thanks, ... Absolutely! I'll be there as well. I should have worn more distinctive clothing. But I'll be passing around flyers...
... I would vote for leaving the language of choice open in order to get a diverse group of developers initially. I do most of my development in Java and...
... At this point I'm looking to get as many people interested as possible. So while I think that having one language per meeting is best (IMHO), I'd ...
... I have the suspicion, which I fear would prove reliable, that few Perl people if any would would show on Java nights and vice versa. ... Maybe I...
... I'm inclined to leave it wide open and let the best approach evolve during the meetings rather than on the mailing list. I think there are good arguments...
My feelings on this may be a little different than Greg's, but here's my $0.02: The nature of the Dojo attracts those seeking to learn and expand their skills....
There had been a lot of activity, on the testdrivendevelopment@yahoogroups.com & extremeprogramming@yahoogroups.com, regarding the "Bowling Kata". At the same...
Kathy sent this to me, and I figured other's might be interested as well. ... Absolutely. The only thing I'd like to stick to is problems that can be explored...
... Sure thing. Here's the link: http://blog.moertel.com/articles/2006/04/05/the-bowling-game-kata-in-haskell If you want to see a couple of implementations...
We have about 10 people signed up for the meeting tomorrow night. I went ahead and reserved the training room, so we should have plenty of space. First, we as...
Sorry, the meeting starts at 6:00PM. Also, I wanted to remind those that are able to bring their laptops. Some folks have mentioned that they don't think they...
Thanks again, everyone that made it, for making the first event a real success! I posted my solution to the Wiki. Under the April 17th meeting, at the bottom...
The next meeting is scheduled for Thursday May 25th at 6:00PM at the Pittsburgh Technology Council. Any suggests for topics, or volunteers to lead the meeting?...
Now sure how many people were still at the meeting when Kathy started showing off FitNesse. But for those interested, someone on the testdrivendevelopment list...
