[Omaha.pm] Can you post a little more detail about the format of the event?

[Matthew Barcomb]

Here is a link with a bunch more info on what a coderetreat is and how I
will be running it :)
http://www.coderetreat.com/how-it-works.html

As Michael mentioned, this codereteat is BYO laptop and will be language
agnostic.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Cheers,
-Matt
