VAGUErs... Last night we met in the Mac Lab for our July meeting. Some regular faces were missing, but a couple of new faces were in attendance; thanks to all those that attended! :)
We ended up having two presentations. Andrew talked about MySQL [1], setting up a JDBC connection to MySQL in OpenOffice, and finished with an overview of views, functions, stored procedures, cursors and transactions. I talked about REpresentational State Transfer (REST) [2], an architecture for networked information systems such as the world wide web. Forest was all ready with his presentation on Django, but Andrew and I consumed all the time available. Apologies to Forest. He's graciously offered to deliver the same talk at the next meeting... ...we talked briefly about if we should have a meeting in August or September, but didn't really come to a consensus. Does anyone else want to volunteer to present for the next meeting? I'm going to investigate location options for having the meeting in Montpelier. If anyone can offer or suggest a facility, please do! We also had a couple of different problems brought before the group in the meeting, which points to perhaps having that as the focus of some future meeting: bring your (description of a) problem, and let the group try to find a solution.
