create Calagator::Event 1250458296 PDX Django February Meeting Roll back

description nil Despite missing December and January, February's PDX Django meeting looks like a great one. We have one short and one medium talk scheduled -- if you'd like to do a 5 minute or so talk on a tool, problem, or feature, why not let us know? It's also the day before PyCon starts, so we might just chat about what looks interesting there. The talks: - Dermot Maty on a problem he had with Proxy Models, and how he solved it - Michael Richardson will be previewing a talk he's giving at DjangoSki. Here's the summary from their talks page: "Michael is a cofounder at Urban Airship where he spends his day working on a RESTful API to deliver notifications and in-app content to mobile devices. His talk, "RESTful APIs with Django and Piston," pulls from Urban Airship's experience and goes through creating an API in Django with Piston along with pitfalls you may experience along the way. Michael was also the developer behind the massive Django-powered meat conglomerate bacn.com until it was sold earlier this year. Bac'n did not, sadly, have an API." The meeting will be at 7pm at PIE, 1227 NW Davis St (directly opposite the North Face store -- look for the big brown armchairs in the window.

create Calagator::Event 1250458286 Rose City SPIN Seminar: Moving to Agile Development presented by Ray Arell Roll back

description nil Rose City Software Process Improvement (SPIN) Seminar [free event, open to public] Title: Moving to Agile Development: What Went Right, What Went Wrong Presenter: Ray Arell Dates/Times: Thursday, February 11th, 2010; Networking @ 6:00 PM; Seminar 7:00-8:00 PM Location: Hillsboro Main Library, Main Library Meeting Room, 2850 NE Brookwood Parkway, Hillsboro, OR 97124 Abstract: A while ago I went into my software staff and declared “Hey! We are going Agile!” Yep, I read an Agile project management book on a long flight to India, and like all good reactionary development managers I was sold! A few years later our adaptation of the Scrum framework has taken shape, but it was not without strain on our development, test, and other Q/A processes. This session focuses on a retrospective of what went right and more importantly what went wrong as we evolved to our new development process and the effect it had on our team. Perhaps it will convince you that the shift to Agile is the way to go, and hopefully give you just a little more info on what you may be in for. Speaker Bio: Ray Arell is a Senior Engineering Manager and Agilist at Intel. He has over 21 years of hardware and software development, validation, and management experience. During his tenure, he has worked on a variety of teams focused on CPU, chipsets, and graphics system-level testing.

update Calagator::Event 1250458267 Portland Linux/Unix Group: A Talk by Jeri Ellsworth (SICK: RESCHEDULING!) Roll back

description <H1>WARNING!!!</H1> <h2>Jeri is sick and can't do the talk tonight. Working on a replacement. Please Standby!</H2> PRESENTATION A Talk by Jeri Ellsworth (Circuit Girl) Jeri Ellsworth is a native Oregonian, born in Yamhill and raised in Dallas, Oregon. Early on she became fascinated with electronics and 8-bit computers setting the stage for her unique approach to learning. Not being challenged in school, she skipped higher education to pursue a career in car-racing and chassis fabrication. After that, she opened a chain of computer stores in Oregon and Washington. She sold those to persue a career in chip design, which lead her to design the CommodoreOne - based upon the Commodore 64 - using reconfigurable logic and the C64 DTV 30- games-in-one joystick, selling, a quarter million units. She currently works as an Oregon based consultant. I'm not sure what Jeri is going to speak about yet, but judging from the talk she gave at Sanford, it should be very good indeed. See a video of her Sanford talk at: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-1053309060448851979# Also, see her webs sites at: http://www.jeriellsworth.com/ and http://www.fatmanandcircuitgirl.com/ <H1>WARNING!!!</H1> <h2>Jeri is sick and can't do the talk tonight.</H2> <h2>Informal DorkBotPDX demo night instead!</h2> In place of Jeri, I have some offers to do demos of projects from DorkBotPDX land, including Simran Gleason about his Kepler's Orrery (a generative music system that composes music from gravity equations), I have a little stepper motor demo, someone suggested they could demo Luz (a ruby / opengl 4-d drawing software), and there may be others.

description nil Join OEN and speaker Naomi Derner for an OEN Workshop Thursday, March 4th from 4:00-6:00 P.M. As an early stage entrepreneur looking for the first round of funding, one of the most daunting tasks may be determining the valuation of your company. In this workshop, we will cover the basics of valuing a seed or launch stage company, and answer some questions, such as: * Who sets the valuation - the company or the investor? * What does pre-money and post-money valuation mean? How do I calculate it? * How do I value my company if we don’t yet have revenues? * How do investors determine the valuation? * How have valuations changed in the economic downturn? We'll explain the terminology, demystify the math and explain some of the ways that valuation is set during the funding process. There will be plenty of time for Q&A, so come armed with your questions and be ready to participate in a lively discussion about valuing early stage companies. To sign up for this workshop, or for more information visit http://www.oen.org/events.aspx?id=133
