Unmeetup at Impact

Have concepts you've been wanting to explore or discuss? Want to see what kind of projects the local Scala community is up to? If so, bring your ideas and inquiries to next unmeetup! This time we are hosted by Impact at their new office in the Empire State Building! There'll be food and drink for us to enjoy while we work.

About the unmeetup series:

An unmeetup is a casual, community-driven, hands-on meetup modeled after an "unconference" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unconference). Attendees propose topics to discuss and projects to work on, then each individual chooses how to spend their time for the evening. This is complementary to the standard meetup and emphasizes community-building and collaboration. Drop by if you:

• would like to offer a tutorial or lightning talk.
• want to collaborate on an open source project.
• have ideas and work-in-progress to share.
• are new to Scala and seeking advice.
• have a tricky bug to solve.
• just want to write code!

It should be expected that not a great deal of preparation goes into the topic, and this hopefully encourages more people to suggest topics since there is no pressure to prepare for weeks on end. Also participants are free to go from topic to topic if they wish to do so.

Agenda:

6:00 - Doors open for refreshments and socializing
6:45 - Welcome, Impact introduction, and announcements
7:00 - Split into groups for projects
9:00 - Take the party elsewhere!
