Hi Folks,
Thanks to everyone who attended last night's meeting. The presentation by Lee on Leiningen plugins (and templates) was great. Leiningen plugins are just another Leiningen project with a few special caveats. They allow you to quickly add verbs to your build process. Instead of things like lein package and lein run you can say lein new-awesome-task.
We had a serious menu upgrade. Qudoba taco bar. Thanks to Cody Powell at Tek Systems ([address removed]) for the help. Tek Systems has *lots* of job openings. If you aren't fully satisfied get in touch with Cody ([address removed]), he will make sure you are happy.
After the meetup Ed, Sean and I got a drink downtown. We happened upon a new place called Stoney's Bar and Grill. They recently opened and are looking to get the word out. It just so happens that they have a nice room upstairs with a projector and screen setup. They cater too and the food looks great. Numerous good beers on tap including New Belgium Shift, Ranger, and a Mojo nitro IPA.

Uncubed is moving downtown and won't be able to hold public meetups anymore. Stoney's seems like a good fit for the group. The only down side is the lack of parking as they are also located downtown.
Please note that the address listed on their website is *wrong*. They are located at:
1434 Blake Street, Denver CO 80202
Before sealing the deal on the new location I wanted to reach out to the group and get some input. This is your group, what would you like? Does this sound like a good move?
I announced to the group that I've taken a position with Sonian. I'll be getting paid to code in Clojure full time. You can too, there are more positions available. Feel free to contact me ([address removed]) or Lee ([address removed]) if you are interested. This is the year for Clojure.
Cheers,
Daniel
