[Andrew Butcher]

First Meeting of the Year
September 16th @ 5:30 PM -- Room 205 Mineral Resources Building

For our first meeting of the year we'll be hosting Mark Dalrymple.
Here is a short bio as well as what Mark will be discussing with us.

Mark Dalrymple has been a professional programmer for 20 years,
specializing in Mac and Unix systems. A veteran of now-dead startups
(Visix, arsDigita) and big technology companies (AOL, Google), he's
had code has running on millions of desktops, servers handling
hundreds of requests a second, and code in space on the space
shuttle. He's the principal author of "Learn Objective-C on the
Macintosh" and "Advanced Mac OS X Programming", and has been technical
reviewer for a half dozen iPhone/iPad programming books. His current
project uses mobile technology to bring the worlds of indoor and
outdoor cycling together.

Mark will be talking about iDevice-style mobile, and how it differs
from the desktop (programming model, resource constraints, etc) He'll
hit the high points of the difficulties (and joys) of the platform,
and look at some code along the way.
