Come to meet people from the local software development industry. We'll share tips and stories and find out who's doing what in Vancouver and the Lower Mainland. Make those network contacts that are so essential in our careers.

Each meeting opens with a short technical presentation to kick off our discussions. Then, following Q&A and possibly a door prize draw, we have our round-the-room introductions and open networking.

For the introductions we invite all participants to introduce themselves and to let us know what they'd like to talk with others about. This is when connections are made so think about what you would like to say beforehand, especially if speaking in front of a group seems difficult.

Of course our "network" is about more than just our meetings. Beyond our members' personal networks we have an opt-in mailing list plus our groups on LinkedIn, Facebook, and Yahoo! See our About Us page at http://softwaredev.meetup.com/17/about/ for more details.

In July we've lined up Owen Rogers of Pulse Energy to present on the benefits of making frequent releases. Part of the Agile Manifesto is to "Deliver working software frequently" but our intuition suggests that releasing too often will drown us in overhead. Join us as Owen shows us that we can structure our processes to minimize the overhead and realize astonishing benefits by releasing software frequently. Read more
