What languages/frameworks do you use (Java, .NET, PHP, Ruby, etc.)?

ruby and node mostly

What topics might you be interested in?

changing culture in a company, hiring, continuous improvement, case studies of particular approaches, as many real-world scenarios/anecdotes a possible

Do you have any specific areas of expertise? Would you be willing to share it with the group?

I do a lot of thinking about how to optimize for developer productivity (minimizing distractions, meetings, managing workflow/communication, etc) and would be interested in being part of a panel discussion

What is your favorite unit test framework and why?

rspec, mostly because I grew up on it

What is your favorite version control system and why?

git because of its ease of branching (and because of github)

  • Hi Cory. I just opened up the waiting list. I'm going to send an email to those who have RSVP'd reminding them of the meeting and expect a few to fall off. So you shouldn't have a problem getting in. If nothing opens up, let me know and I'll get you on the list regardless.
