CascadiaJS is the JavaScript conference for the Pacific Northwest. This year’s event will bring together an amazing group of web developers from across the Pacific Northwest (and beyond). You will find every kind of developer you can imagine:

• Code newbies all the way to senior executives
• Front-end, back-end and full-stack engineers
• Expertise in popular frameworks
• Members of under-represented groups in tech

Over the course of 2 days, you’ll hear 20+ amazing talks by experts in their fields, covering everything from GenAI to TypeScript to leadership. There will be ample opportunities for you to connect with other developers and hiring companies, during coffee breaks, meals and social gatherings at the venue, and karaoke!

Calagator is an all-volunteer, open-source project to develop a calendar aggregation system for the Portland technical community. We're making lots of progress, so please join us in the effort. For further details about the project, see calagator.org

We have a full-day code sprint on Saturday at CubeSpace starting at 10am and ending around 6pm. You don't have to be there for the full day, join us for however much time you'd like to contribute.

Everyone is welcome to participate, even those that haven't been at a code sprint before. These events are great for learning more about Ruby and Rails, agile programming, and finding ways to work better with other technical people in a friendly environment while making a genuine contribution to a community project.

Join us!

Some possible tasks for the sprint include adding data versioning and rollback, improving Google Calendar compatibility, and reviewing whether we'd like to include basic reservation support as seen on this demo site: http://calagator-with-reservations.demo.pragmaticraft.com:81/events/1250455702

Everyone is welcome to participate, even those that haven't been at a code sprint before. These events are great for learning more about creating software, agile development, Ruby and Rails, and finding ways to work better with others in a friendly environment, all while making a genuine contribution to an open source community project. We'll work iteratively throughout the day, so you can still help out even if you go to just part of the event.

See you there!

Come join us to work on improving Calagator in recognition of its 1 year birthday. We'll have a birthday party afterward.

Come hack on Calagator, the open source calendar aggregator.

We'll be digging in to open issues, working on some refactoring tasks, and getting new folks acquainted with the code base.

We have a short code sprint on Wednesday lunch at Backspace, and a full-day code sprint this Saturday at CubeSpace starting at 10am (although you can come later in the day).

We'll be having another code sprint this Saturday at CubeSpace,
starting at 10AM. Now that we've started regularly re-importing
feeds, we have more to do to handle duplicates and get the import/ export process running as efficiently as possible. There's also
writing up a "Guide to Calagator" as Igal discussed, to help us get
more groups sending data, and identifying any additional sources we
can import at this time.

...

I'd heartily invite non-programmers and those that haven't gone to many code sprints to join us for this session. You can really help us out even if you join us for part of the day.

Calagator is now ready enough that we can recommend it to many additional local groups. We need to discuss how to best approach, assist and involve them.

A "Guide to Calagator" article will help us explain to community leaders what Calagator is about, how it can help them, and how they can use it. It'll need to be written in plain, clear English with minimum jargon or fuss. We'll need writers.

But don't worry, there will be plenty of programming too. ;)

See you there.

Our bi-weekly code sprint to work on making Calagator even more awesome.

Once again we'll meet to work on making Calagator the best calendar aggregator ever.

Come help build the Calagator!

NOTICE: Unlike usual sprints, this would be at noon, not 10m, and at UGNW, not CubeSpace.

I'd like to have a mini code sprint this weekend. Everyone is welcome, no programming experience required, although it'd be useful.

UGNW is near the Streetcar, so getting there even in bad weather should work okay.

We can talk about what we want to do with recurring events, the with_my_events branch, supporting multiple regions, supporting multiple instances, and supporting categories. We may even get some coding done too. :)

Join us to improve Calagator at RecentChangesCamp. We've got new patches to review and extend, e.g., theming, logins, letting users say "I'm going" to an event, and much more.

Starting at the Calagator Documentation Sprint, we will plan out how to build a separate reservation system for Calagator. This will be an entirely new-code project to build a system to maintain reservations for calagator events. Discussion to be had as to whether to store data in calagator and use this as a frontend, store data in the new reservation system and provide an API for Calagator to use to save reservations, or something completely different.

This will probably be written in Python+Django.

The Calagator team has made excellent headway since we've started this project a few months ago. I'm pleased to announce our preliminary roadmap to version 1.0: http://code.google.com/p/calagator/wiki/Roadmap

If you're a designer, writer, or programmer, we could use your help in designing new UIs, writing documentation, and adding interesting features.

We have two code sprints coming up: 1. Wednesday 6/18 at Backspace, from noon until it's time to leave for Ignite Portland. 2. Saturday 6/21 at CubeSpace, from 10am until 6pm, although we often end up moving to the Side Door and staying later.

You do not need to stay for the entire code sprint -- stay as long as you'd like. Everyone is welcome to participate, even if you haven't attended a code sprint before. If you want to help with programming, experience with Ruby on Rails and agile development is helpful, but you're welcome to come even if you're new to these because this is a great way to learn.

Join us to to work on the Calagator User Guide. This is a great chance to learn more about the project and help out with an important task. Previous code sprint participants and newcomers are all welcome to contribute.

Come make Calagator more awesomer.

I've heard some interest in holding a mid-week code sprint next week, and also some interest in more evening meetings. So, next Thursday, in the evening, we're sprinting away. We can fix bugs and maybe add tagging. Good times will be had by all.
