Two doors are open late:
You can get in on Division by walking through Ford Food & Drink.
You can get in on 11th by walking through the parking lot.
There's another door on 11th that locks at 5, but it's within easy sight of the way to get in through the cafe.
CrowdCompass will try to have signs on the doors indicating how to get up to the office. There are stairs and an elevator. The elevator is not secured. The office is suite 300 on the third floor; there's also a CrowdCompass sign. |

Inaugural meeting!
The Zissou Society for Programming Language Exploration (aka pdxlang) is a general programming language discussion/exploration group. The weird, the offbeat, the little-known, the forgotten programming languages. These are the things we'll be discussing.
We have three talks lined up:
* Bart Massey will show us Inform 7.
* Joe Groff is going to present on Factor.
* Markus Roberts will give a talk on ... something. We're still
working that out. If you've seen Markus present before, you know it's
probably more fun that way.
Rumor has it that there will be pizza and beer. |

Seeing Software Quality Through an Agile Lens
Roll back
| description |
Abstract:
Seeing Software Quality through an Agile Lens
...or Scrum canât buy you love (or quality), but it can get you there much faster.
For a software quality engineer entering an Agile team for the first time, the transition can be extreme. The traditional software quality practices and activities change in many ways but, looking closely, the core principles are still there. In fact, Agile development can be an SQEâs dream! Agile naturally combines all factors that impact quality from people to transparency all in a cohesive system.
Join Rhea as she details her experience of going from a waterfall background and jumping head first into an Agile development environment. She will focus on how she applied quality practices in this environment, road bumps along the way that any team adopting Agile might encounter, and how Agile enabled levels of quality beyond all previous expectations.
Bio:
Rhea Stadick is a software quality manager for product engineering teams in the Business Client group at Intel. She is focused on developing a sustained, strong capability in engineering teams to deliver high quality products. Over the last several years she has become an advocate for agile development and is an agile coach as well as a co-director of the Intel Agility Catalyst team promoting the adoption of agile culture and methodologies throughout the organization. Rhea graduated from Oregon State University with a Bachelor of Science Honors degree in Computer Science and is currently finishing her MBA at Willamette University.
A Special Treat from PNSQC

ProKarma sponsored AgilePDX event: "The Mikado Method, or how to behead the legacy beast" workshop
Roll back
| description |
For any code base there comes a time when you want (or need) to change it. If your changes are extensive, itâs easy to get lost in a jungle of dependencies or on a sea of broken code. Ultimately, you might just give up and shove it away under the legacy label. Instead of doing that, use "The Mikado Method," a systematic approach to reclaim your code. The method helps you visualize, prepare, and perform business-value focused changes, while delivering, and without having a broken code-base in the process. It enhances team communication, collaboration and learning, and helps individuals stay on track.
http://mikadomethod.wordpress.com/book/
For: Lead developers, architects, programming coaches, or anyone who wants to get some serious hands-on practice on how to work their way out of messy code while keeping the delivery frequency and business value focus.
Join Ola Ellnestam, founder of Agical.se and author of The Mikado Method, as he leads the group through exploring techniques for restructuring difficult-t0-work-with code. Ola likes to combine people, technology and business which is best done with simple means and flexible processes. More than that he likes to share his knowledge and experiences because thatâs how new insights are created according to him. http://ellnestam.wordpress.com/
http://www.hanoulle.be/2012/02/who-is-ola-ellnestam/
http://www.agical.com/
Registration fee: $85 - The participation of our sponsors, (including Agile Open Northwest and...you?) helps us to keep the fee as low as possible.

Season 6, episode 7
Get up early and work on your side projects with some like-minded geeks!
TechCoffee is part running club, part knitting bee, and part hackathon. It's hard to work on all of your amazing ideas after a long workday, so instead we get up early. And we get together, so we have the reinforcement of other people up early, too. A couple hours a week can make a big difference.
So bring your laptops and your work ethic to PDX TechCoffee. Or, if you can't be there in person, join us on IRC at #techcoffee on FreeNode. One commit a week is all we ask.

Seeing Software Quality Through an Agile Lens
Roll back
| description |
Abstract:
Seeing Software Quality through an Agile Lens
...or Scrum canât buy you love (or quality), but it can get you there much faster.
For a software quality engineer entering an Agile team for the first time, the transition can be extreme. The traditional software quality practices and activities change in many ways but, looking closely, the core principles are still there. In fact, Agile development can be an SQEâs dream! Agile naturally combines all factors that impact quality from people to transparency all in a cohesive system.
Join Rhea as she details her experience of going from a waterfall background and jumping head first into an Agile development environment. She will focus on how she applied quality practices in this environment, road bumps along the way that any team adopting Agile might encounter, and how Agile enabled levels of quality beyond all previous expectations.
Bio:
Rhea Stadick is a software quality manager for product engineering teams in the Business Client group at Intel. She is focused on developing a sustained, strong capability in engineering teams to deliver high quality products. Over the last several years she has become an advocate for agile development and is an agile coach as well as a co-director of the Intel Agility Catalyst team promoting the adoption of agile culture and methodologies throughout the organization. Rhea graduated from Oregon State University with a Bachelor of Science Honors degree in Computer Science and is currently finishing her MBA at Willamette University.

Inaugural meeting!
The Zissou Society for Programming Language Exploration (aka pdxlang) is a general programming language discussion/exploration group. The weird, the offbeat, the little-known, the forgotten programming languages. These are the things we'll be discussing.
We have three talks lined up:
* Bart Massey will show us Inform 7.
* Joe Groff is going to present on Factor.
* Markus Roberts will give a talk on ... something. We're still
working that out. If you've seen Markus present before, you know it's
probably more fun that way.
