Let's have another meeting!

[Alex Cruise]

I'll tell you all about what's new and awesome in Scala 2.8.

What nights are good for the rest of you?

[David Dossot]

Cool idea. Tuesdays and Wednesdays work best for me.

Cheers,
D.

[Alex Cruise]

Cool, maybe too can tell us about Erlang too! :)

I think a Tuesday would be best then... March 30th, April 6th, 13th or 20th?

Chris Shorrock, if you're still around, and if you're permitted to, I would love it if you could talk to us about what you're doing with Scala at EA.

Now that I've used Scala "in anger" too I have some perspective that I can share.

Any evening except March 30th works for me (though I won't have anything to
contribute, I'm afraid).

Johnny

[James Golick]

Anytime is good for me.

Certainly ;) It's all fun().

Out of these I'm available the 6th and 13th (plug: I'm giving an
Erlang + SNMP talk on the 20th - http://www.meetup.com/erlang-vancouver/calendar/12960828/
)

D.

[Peter Potts]

I am still out of the country.

Sounds great though. 5th April onwards is good with me.

[Rodney Gitzel]

I'm in.  An April Tuesday would work well.

OK, how about next Tuesday, the 27th? :)

Works for me.

Johnny

[James Golick]

I can probably make it. Where?

[Rodney Gitzel]

I should be there.   The closer to Gastown the better.

rodney

[Adrian Powell]

Sounds good.  How about Waves Coffee on Hastings & Richards - it is close to transit and has free WiFi and reasonable coffee.  Is 6:00 too early for people?

[David Dossot]

I'm +1 on suggested location and time.

Count me in too.
i.e. 6:00pm 27th April at Waves Coffee on Hastings & Richards

Do they have enough space? We have seven now, and I know of at least
a couple more who are likely to attend.

I'm trying to get a conference room at the QLT building where my new
job is, we'll see...

[Howard Yeh]

i'd also like do join

[Yuriy]

Hi guys,

I would also like to join. Hopefully Waves Coffee is stretchable.

Regards,
Yuriy

I am (selfishly) +2 on this location (I work there too ;-).

Joke aside, this is where the last 3 Erlang meetups were held and
we've found the venue to be very good for this kind of event.

D.

[Rodney Gitzel]

So?  Time and place?

[Alex Cruise]

The QLT building. So close to the VCC Skytrain station!  Plus, two of us already work here. :)

Should we meet up out front at, say, 6:15?  My cell is (604) 562-5137 if you're much earlier or later.

I might order pizza--how many of you are vegetarians?

-0xe1a

[Alex Cruise]

Does anyone need a quick Scala tutorial, or are you all pretty much old hands by now? :)

[Rodney Gitzel]

Not old, just a hand.   Written one non-trivial program so far.  Interested in other peoples' experiences, opinions.

And...  vegetarian-friendly...

rodney

[Adrian Powell]

I'm veg, thanks for asking.

I've written a few Swing apps, one of which will go live over the next few weeks, but there's a lot that I don't know.  Every Daily Scala blog post is new and I understand less than half of the 2.8.0 changes (I get the feeling like we could talk for an hour on the collections alone).  So I'm happy to share what I've learned but I'm happier to hear from some pros.

-Adrian

[David Dossot]

Foodwise, I'm only scared of anchovies.

For the rest, I've started to learn Scala last year, by solving
Project Euler problems, but stopped when I have hired to err into
Erlang.

See you all tonight,
D.

[Chris Shorrock]

Unfortunately I'm unable to make it tonight - so maybe next time
around I'll be able to show my face. Have fun.

[Ken Pratt]

Do you have room for one more this evening?

I'm a Scala noob, but have a decent amount of experience with both
Java and Erlang.

At this point I don't have a clear idea of how many are coming (HINT
HINT please reply-to-author to make sure I buy enough pizzae ;) but
the more the merrier.

Cool, we can do a quick intro.

[Howard]

[Howard Yeh]
