Meetup #100 - Top 5 Papers Every Programmer Should Read

It's our 100th meetup!

We have come a long way in the last 5 years:

• we read 92 whitepapers,
• organised couple of coding dojos, katas and code retreats,
• we even passed 1000 members on meetup recently.

All of that is a cause for a special celebration! :-)

Thank our sponsors!
Thank you Lightbend (previously known as Typesafe) and Ocado Technology for sponsoring this very special 100th edition of our reading club!

Meeting format is different for this special occasion:

There's no paper to read for the 100th meetup. Instead, we will have a couple of our veteran members present their Top 5 Papers Every Programmer Should Read lists based on the papers we discussed so far.

There will be enough time for discussions, as usual, of course and we invite you to stay around longer after the official part of the event to talk about those papers.

Vote now – Community TOP 5 Whitepapers!

You should have already gotten a message about your TOP 5 papers. Please follow the link below to vote on the best papers in your opinion: TOP 5 Papers of all time survey (http://goo.gl/forms/jyjPHMKxbs).

Remember the list is not just about the 100th meetup. We will revisit the best papers in the near future, so that the less experienced members of SCKRK have a chance to learn from them as we did before.

Venue:

The meetup will take place in Stoccaggio Wine Bar on Krupnicza. We will provide wine, snacks and sweets - all to celebrate the special occasion :-)

The venue limits us to 50 people, so RSVP soon.
