  • What are the big changes in Scala 2.8
  • More changes in 2.8
  • Lift at Foursquare
  • ScalaCheck
  • Scala community relations
  • Introduction to simple-build-tool
  • Learning Scala trough Processing with Spde
  • Mixing functional and object-oriented techniques
  • Dependency Injection in Scala
  • Creating DSLs, internal and external

    If you see a session missing here, especially something you want to talk about, leave a comment and I'll add it.

    Also if you want to claim a summary now, please do. I'll take the Spde one! We'll divvy up the remaining ones at the Meetup.

    I gained an insight or two at the "finding the right mix of functional and object-oriented techniques (effective scala)" that I may be able to share. (I don't remember the precise name of that session though!)

    PS: I could also summarize the ScalaCheck session by Mark H. (Though I've not used it much yet, I have a good understanding from its Haskell predecessor, QuickCheck... I created the Standard ML clone.)
