Main Talk...

Dependencies, Notifications, and Adjustments: In this talk I'll introduce the DNA design concept from Growing Object Oriented Software, Guided by Tests (http://www.amazon.com/Growing-Object-Oriented-Software-Guided-Tests/dp/0321503627) as it applies to Ruby. DNA helps you specify the relationships between classes in your Ruby code: which classes are Dependencies, which are Notifications, and which are Adjustments? In a complex system, what's the best way to construct an object so it knows just enough about its DNA, while being easy to change and easy to test? I'll be sharing some examples from real-world production code. 30 minutes.

About the Speaker: Mike Subelsky (http://www.subelsky.com/) is a Baltimore-based entrepreneur, programmer, and devops guy. His tools of choice are Ruby and JavaScript but he considers himself a jack-of-all-trades. In 2007, he co-founded a web startup called OtherInbox.com, which was just acquired by ReturnPath. Currently, he is pursuing new as-yet-unannounced ventures (he promises "something new and very cool").
