All,
XP Washington, DC is the DC-area XP users group. We hold regular
meetings every month, and series of weekly Code Fests. A Code Fest
is an opportunity for programmers to get together and try out the XP
practices on realistic software. They're especially useful for people
who don't get a chance to pair program in their day jobs. As a
side effect, we produce and enhance useful free software.
We are continuing the Fall series of Code Fests this
Thursday, December 2, 2004, at 6:30 PM.
This is a great opportunity to learn Extreme Programming by
doing it: we'll be pair programming on the Bowling Game, using
test-driven development, refactoring, and simple design.
Code Fests are open to anyone interested in learning about the
practices of XP, whether or not you've ever been to an XPWDC event
before. Even if you missed the first session in the series, you can
still catch up, and we still have plenty of room.
We'll be working in both Java and Python, whichever you feel most
comfortable with. Other languages can be accommodated if you bring a
laptop with the appropriate environment.
Code Fests are back at their original location: (Note that this is a
different location than the ones we held a couple of months ago.)

have to sacrifice a young goat to your SCSI chain every now and then.
