When: Tuesday May 10, 2005 7PM-9PM Where: Performics 180 N. Lasalle, Suite 1200 Chicago, IL First up will be Andy Lester, with a talk entitled "Preventing Crisis: Project estimation and tracking that works" Embarrassing bugs, late-night phone calls and impossible schedules are all crises no one wants, but are all too common. "Don't accept them as inevitable: Prevent them! Learn how to change from scapegoat to rock star, and bring back the joy of development." Following that presentation will be a couple of Lightning Talks on HTML::Mason, SVK (a Perl-based distributed source control system) and possibly others. All are welcome, but we do need to coordinate with building security since the meeting is after normal business hours. Please contact jason@multiply.org if you plan on attending. -- Andy Lester => andy@petdance.com => www.petdance.com => AIM:petdance
