December 1st Meetup!

[Aaron A]

Heya Guys,

Any ideas of what talks might be presented at the Dec meeting?

Or what topics might be the most interesting?

Was curious if I should do some more on Lift if anyone is interested.

Or on some more Scala subjects in particular.

Looking forward to seeing everyone.

[Jeff Shutt]

I am planning talking about O/R Broker.

Yes, would like to learn about lift database features.

Thanks Chris!

I won't have time to pull anything together but given the db access topic, ScalaQuery should be mentioned.

I'm going to give a small.. SMALL intro to MongoDB and hopefully get folks to setup on their laptops with it.

Then I'll talk about first Casbah which has changed quite a bit since I first used it.

Then I'll try and go into some detail of Rogue ontop of the Lift Record ORM.

I was planning on attending and give a short ScalaQuery usage in a cloud-based application code walk through but I am on the upside of a cold.
I'll be at the January meeting, hopefully we can meet on the east side of the valley by then :-) I'm happy to ping a few of the libraries (Cottonwood heights, etc); not sure about wifi in them.

If anyone is interested in Akka, I'd like to do a full-meeting preso in February on the framework, including Akka messaging with remote nodes. Maybe I can slide in the ScalaQuery code for 10 min in Jan.

Helena,

Hey no problem. Hope you get feeling better.

Doesn't look like the libraries have what we need--rooms are small (10 max) and auditorium requires non-profit status. We could explore piggy-backing off UJUG for that but we would also need our own projector...so I wouldn't completely rule a library out but lets keep looking.

Here's what we are looking for:
- 20 capacity (up to 30 or ever 50 for growth is preferred)
- WIFI guest access
- projector (unless someone donates one or can bring theirs each month)
- available monthly, 1st Wednesday (starting January), from 5-8pm
- can bring in food
- pref south SLC to Sandy area

I'd be VERY interested in hearing more on Akka. I've done a lot with just Generic Actors and LiftActors, but haven't quite yet played with Akka and have recently become very interested in it.
