An Open Discussion of Object Oriented Design

I think that an open forum of how we develop object oriented systems would be valuable. I am sure everyone has way they go about it or some basic principals that everyone could benefit from. In graduate school I studied Object Oriented Design and programming in C++ . But I had to move before I could finish the class so I would like to fill in the concepts I may not understand or that have been introduced since 1991.

Here's a few topics that we could discuss in an open-forum setup. If there is any other thoughts feel free to add a comment below and bring them to the meetup!
