End of Year Retrospective Meeting - Ottawa Scrum Users Group
Ottawa, Canada
Hello! Hot off of the heals of our mock retrospective meeting, we will hold our first end-of-year retrospective. I'll come prepared with post-it notes and tiny circle stickers for us to play with. Hopefully we will develop a list of action items to improve meetings for 2010. The second half of the meeting will be a group forum discussion regarding the impact that an organization's management structure ( matrix, functional, etc ) has on adopting Scrum. Pizza and refreshments will be served!

Cooking with Chef: Your servers will thank you - The Vancouver Ruby/Rails/Merb Meetup Group
Vancouver, Canada
Talk Description: When you hear "sysadmin work", do you think of ssh, vi, and shell scripts? If you do, it's probably not the most fun sounding work. Repetitive, tedious, and error-prone are words that come to mind. Thankfully, configuring servers is all but a solved problem thanks to Chef. The days of vi, and shell scripts are mostly over. Building complex infrastructure has never been easier.

A Silverlight Introduction to newbies/designers + Developer Talk TBA - Vancouver Silverlight User Group
Vancouver, Canada
Okay this is a combined talk for designers/developers depending on the ratio that RSVP's. The designer talk will be aimed at newcomers / existing Flash users and the developer talk I've still yet to determine depending on time. However based on RSVP's I can easily change this to a full developer focus if we end up getting the same faces again :) Please RSVP if you can make the date and a time. There is still the possibility of getting a Microsoft speaker.
