Hi

Sorry!

Some people have registered Skills Matter without giving their full name

Hi Peter,

It will be the first time for me and another guy. Do we need to print something or we just need to say the name in the entrance?

Regards,

riccardo.

I'd like to thank Graeme Rocher for a superb talk on Grails under
difficult circumstances, I hope I have the opportunity to hear him
speak again in the future.

Also - of course - thanks to Peter for lining up such a good speaker
and conjuring Pizza and drinks out of thin air.

Sorry I couldn't stay for a drink, very busy at the moment.

Cheers,
Phil.

I'm sorry that I missed it today even though I was registered. My
apologies for anyone who could not get registered because of the
capacity limit. Will the talk videos be published online for the ones
who missed it?

Erdinc,

There is talk of running the presentation again next week, I imagine
Peter will make an announcement once it has been settled. Failing
that, contact Skills Matter directly and ask them. Owing to a
registration error there were quite a few additional people present!

Phil.

Hi All

I just got time to say that Grame Rocher and I agreed to do a repeat

Matter for Wednesday 4th February.

Best.

Hi,

The talk was really interesting and even to talk to some people in the pub (although I lost my last train to come back home).

I hope that more companies will use Grails in the future, it is very promising and it is a good option to PHP, Python and Rails.

Cheers,

Riccardo.

Could it possibly not be Wednesday? That conflicts with the London
Wicket meetup.
